This is such a worthwhile event that raises funds for some well-deserving athletes in the Special Olympics. Let me tell you my dear friends this run is not as easy as it sounds. This is a unique 5K through a tunnel that I feel someone has to experience at least once in their lifetime. The last few kilometers really burns because of the incline going back to the New Jersey side. Nevertheless with a huge amount of people participating you always are motivated to keep on going. This event is more fun to run with friends especially if you want to compete with them. At the end of the day it is, as I said for a very good cause, so no matter how you look at it, it truly is a win for everyone involved!

We ran as a family, my 8 year old thought it was amazing, my 6 year old was not really into it, but is proud of her medal. The distance was perfect for the kids, obstacles were engaging, but not too difficult for the kids, and the kids were excited to be at Belleayre, in the summer time, because it is where they ski. My one real criticism is that there was no festival feel to the event. IMHO, a half an hours worth of stuff to do after the race (dancing, face painting, limbo, whatever) would have really improved the event over all. This one minor complaint aside, Your First Mud Run is definitely worth doing.

There was a bar, merchandise you could buy, and some photo opps. Check in started at 11:30am but we didn't arrive until a little after 1:00pm.

The race was about a mile and it was through the streets and over a bridge. After the race, there was a party with a DJ. Overall, I had so much fun.

Our Yelp team, 'Baby it's Yelp Outside', raised over $7K+ towards this charity and won third place in fundraising for NYC...Whoo Hoo!!! Thanks to all of my supporters and contributors in helping me reach my fundraising goals which added to the teams overall goal, couldn't have done this without you. As it was explained to me, this is one of the few charities that you don't have to worry about where the funds are going as it goes directly to the Children's Tumor Foundation and that in itself makes this particular event even more than worth it. Thanks to our Yelp NYC Crew, Drew, Sierra and Katey for being there. I was genuinely happy to see our Yelp table representing, as you always do. Thanks to all the Yelpers, friends and family that came out despite the extreme cold, very brave of you considering the weather conditions. This year it was clearly stated that you did not have to do the run, which a few people heeded. But that didn't stop some of the barely clad who did the shortened run by the Westside Highway, with car horns blaring, showing love or better yet wondering what the hell is going on with hundreds of people running in their unmentionables...that was a funny sight to see. Also, thanks to Brian N. who made me aware of this charity a few years ago and Alexandra K. who ran our cool team of Yelpers this year by keeping everyone informed and pretty much managing all things necessary for our teams success. Awesome afternoon dance party with underwear wearing fund raisers, what more could you ask for? Oh, I know, temperatures in February slightly above freezing.

I'm so glad I found this run because besides being a really cool route - running thru the Brooklyn battery tunnel (sorry, I'm old and still call it that) from red hook, Brooklyn - it also was the one of the most inspiring stories I had heard about 9/11. It commemorates the route from red hook to Manhattan an off duty firefighter took from the tunnel to the site of the towers, with all his gear on, after they'd closed the tunnel to traffic. Because of that it's a little longer than a 5k (I clocked 3.68 miles). Tons of firefighters and police run the race in uniform- it's an enormous race with 30000+ people, and there's also lots of regular people too running. As you come out of the tunnel, there's firefighters and military personnel holding up pictures of people who lost their lives and also cheering everyone on and high fiving you as you run by. It was kind of amazing and even though I didn't lose anyone on 9/11 its very emotional and makes you proud to be an American. They put on a huge street fair with a ton of food - burgers hot dogs ribs pizza donuts beer...and fruit too if you were trying to be healthy. A band I guess performed too. The line to take the wall st ferry to red hook was early (7:30 am cut off or so) and huge, even by 7 am when I was in line but it was an amazing race...i highly recommend!

This Super race took place at Mountain Creek ski resort which features the largest mountain in NJ-Vernon Peak. As you would expect the terrain is very mountainous with steep inclines and deep valleys. Super races are typically 8-10 miles long and consist of 25+ obstacles such as the dunk wall, weighted bucket carry, atlas ball carry, rope climb and more. The various obstacles take place on the mountain with a 1,040' vertical peak, with a base of 440 feet and a summit elevation of 1,480 feet. Your thighs, calves...and your whole body will be feeling it. The course will not have mercy on you and neither will the weather. We ran the course as the NE was getting hit with a Nor'easter. For safety reasons they eventually shortened the course as racers were experiencing injuries and hypothermia. Luckily, my team was able to complete the course without injury. In addition to the incredible views while climbing the mountain top..your reward for completing the challenge is the ultimate feeling of accomplishment! Not to mention, you get a finisher's medal, finisher's tee, headband, free post race refreshments (protein bars, bananas, fit aid recovery drinks) and one free beer. I am looking forward to my next race #aroo!!!

Excellent Racing Experience!! As a Motorsport enthusiast I try all forms of racing schools and…read moredifferent types of cars. The Kenny Wallace Dirt Racing Experience has been best I've had to date. It was my first time on dirt. I chose the Sprint Car in the form of the World of Outlaws winged car. There were about 8 people in my session which I thought to be an appropriate class size. There were other car choices including Late Model, Modifieds, and something they call an L-Mod which is a smaller car with a powerful motorcycle engine. The day started out with registration and then the "chalk talk" where they went over safety, track procedures, and hints on how to get around the track. Then we put on our racing suits and helmets and had photos taken car side. A staff member buckled me in, familiarized me with the controls and switches and gave me additional instruction. We had ear phone pads stuffed in our helmets so we could take direction from the instructor/spotter. When on track, there was one other student so you didn't have to worry about traffic. Now what separates the Kenny Wallace Dirt Racing Experience from the rest, this was not the typical lead-follow racing class experience. I had total control over how fast or slow I wanted to go. I had the instructor in my ear to guide me. I went as fast as I felt comfortable. I did get sideways in the corners and it was manageable the way they had the cars set up. To me this was very exciting! When i was done, there was no wiping the smile off my face. If you have any inclination to experience what it is like to drive a race car on a real track, this is best program around that I've experienced. I highly recommend it!
