WHAT TO BRING

Joliet, IL

July 20th, 2019

It's almost time to get muddy, and we've got all the info you'll need to get ready for the big day!

- NOTE IMPORTANT EVENT CHANGE: Due to the hot afternoon temperatures, all participants in the 1:00 pm adult wave have been moved to the 12:30 pm running time.  Please adjust your schedule accordingly.

BRING portable chairs, umbrellas and shade structures for the festival area, is there is no shade available.  Secure your shade structures in case of wind. Bring extra water to hydrate before and after your run.

- SHOWING UP
Gates open 9 am. You'll want to show up ONE HOUR prior to your wave time to allow enough time for parking, registration, etc.  Event held rain or shine.

- REGISTRATION
To speed thru bib pickup, bring a copy of your original confirmation and your Photo I.D. along with your signed waiver to the registration tent. Parent / Guardian will pick up MF Kidz bib(s).  Can't find your confirmation? Enter your email address affiliated with your purchase and have it resent HERE.

- PARKING
$20 cash per vehicle.  Parking area is limited for this venue, please carpool.  Attendants will direct where you park. You must park in our designated event parking area only. No parking on streets or roads allowed. Absolutely no "walk-ins" from outside the event parking area will be permitted to participate in any Mud Factor event, no exceptions.

- BAG CHECK
You may drop off any items you don't want getting muddy or lost at our Bag Check tent for $5 cash.  Do not run with wedding rings, they are not easy to find in the mud after the event is over, trust us on this one.  

- MERCHANDISE
You may purchase or pick up your pre ordered Mud Factor merchandise at the merch tent, located in the festival area.  We do not mail, refund, or credit for merchandise not picked up the day of the event at the venue.

- COME PREPARED
We recommend bringing extra clothes, shoes, and towels. Bring plastic bags for dirty items. We will have plastic car seat covers for sale at $3 cash each. Bring extra water to hydrate yourself before and after the run. Mud Factor provides small 9 oz cups of water to quench your thirst at the 1.6 mile and finish line. Please use only one cup per pass, and do not use the drinking water as a body rinse station, there is a separate rinse area for that.

- PHOTOS
Show us your photos. Upload them to our Facebook events page. Use hashtags #MudFactor #SeriouslyFun #MudRun. Our Instagram is www.instagram.com/mudfactor

- WASH OFF STATION
We will have a wash off area with running water.  Bring a towel and a change of clothes.  EPIC wipes (large towel size) are available at the merch tent.  Lines can form, and the showers are not the Hilton.  Some participants bring gallons of water and rinse off at their vehicles.  We think this is a great idea, but please take all trash and unwanted items with you or dispose of them properly.  Do not leave the venue trashed.  

- SPECTATORS
Spectators are $10 cash the day of the event at the venue. Spectators have access to the festival area only - no course access. Sight lines and access to obstacles are limited, and not guaranteed. Children 13 and under are admitted free (as spectators) into the festival area.

- FOOD & DRINKS
We will have a local food vendor in the festival area, please support them. No outside food or drinks allowed except water.   Bring Cash.

- EVENT DAY SIGN UP
Late registration is available the day of the event at full price, $65 Adult Waves / $45 MF Kidz Family Waves.

- WAVE TIME CHANGE (Day of Event Only)
Please arrive one hour prior to the wave time you want to run in, and head to the Post Registration line at the registration tent. The fee is $15 cash to make this change.  

- TRANSFER YOUR REGISTRATION (Day of Event Only)
Change of plans and can't make it? The new participant will want to show up at least an hour prior to the wave time they'd like to run in. Have them bring a copy of the ORIGINAL PARTICIPANT'S CONFIRMATION EMAIL to the Post Registration line at the registration tent. Tell them to bring their I.D. and $15 cash to make this change.

Deferments are not available for this event.  We do not credit or refund for "no shows".
