Massive mud race coming to Ontario Place this spring

If dreams of a huge slip and slide aren't enough to bolster your spirit through the darkest says of winter, perhaps the thought of making your way through heaps a muddy obstacle course will divert your mind from the persistent snow in the forecast. Mud Hero will take place at the Ontario Place grounds during May 24 weekend and promises to be both a physical challenge and a spring bash.

Along with the 6km obstacle course (of which there is a "hard" and "easy" option for participants), there will be live music, a barbecue, and lots of beer. You might want to start drink before the event to make yourself immune to the slime that will accompany the race, but it's probably best to wait until you've completed the race before imbibing. The race gets underway at noon on Friday, May 22nd so you might even be able to fit in a mud bath before heading up to the cottage.
