The world’s leading obstacle course event, Tough Mudder, is coming to the Philippines for the first time in July.
“This is the first time that Tough Mudder will be in the Philippines, and Tough Mudder is not just about being tough, it is also about teamwork and determination,” said Proactive Sports chief operating officer Justine Cordero. Proactive Sports is the event’s local partner.
The inaugural Philippine’s Tough Mudder Event Weekend in July will be followed by another event in November. Both events will feature the endurance event series’s signature obstacles.
This new licensee follows the success of Tough Mudder’s licensed events—hosted in Mexico, Bali, Ireland, United Arab Emirates, and Australia.
With more than three million participants to date across five continents, Tough Mudder has offerings ranging from accessible yet rewarding challenges, such as the Tough Mudder 5K and Tough Mudder Half (five-mile event excluding fire, ice, and electricity) to competitive events, such as Tough Mudder X (the toughest mile on the planet) and World’s Toughest Mudder (24-hour endurance event).
“Tough Mudder events have united millions seeking a more engaging, communal form of active lifestyle,” enthused Tough Mudder co-founder and chief executive Will Dean.
He continued, “We are excited to partner with Proactive Sports Management, who have a proven track record for success for athletic events in the Philippines, to ensure locals and tourists alike will have the same unparalleled experience that has made Tough Mudder the must-do event for OCR enthusiasts and weekend warriors alike.”
