Join us for the first Grand Forks Fair Fun Run!
Tackle a jaunt around the iconic River Cities Speedway Bullring, but don't bring your good shoes because the this track will leave you grinding your teeth with the tacky clay!
From there summit an 8 foot wall over the fence leading from the grandstands only to be met with a 400M sprint to the hay bales where you must hurdle not 1, not 2, but 3 giant haybales using only a rope and your skill.
Once those arms are good and tired, it's time to see what's left in them with the farmers carry. Push a wheelbarrow full of dirt to the cusp of the icebreaker.
Dive into this icy bin and make it out in time to test that dexterity with peg wall. Set those pegs right into the board but beware one misstep and you have to start over.
Land on your feet only to test your balance with the balance beam jaunt.
From there get ready to roll up those sleeves and get dirty in our mud pit mania. Gooey mud filling up every inch of you as you crawl under the wire through this dirty pit.
If you've made it this far you made it just in time for the tractor tire flip. Flip that tire down a straight away but be careful, this may be harder than you think with surprises!
Finally flipped it? Use those fast feet out and get past the tire sprint only to find your way into the quarter pipe. Every bit of that mud becomes a challenge now to work your way up the quarter pipe using a rope.
Climb under cargo netting through the gravel to get to the home stretch only to be met with the buckets. Carry this gravel filled 5 gallon bucket around a loop only to make it to the monkey bars. Loft your way through monkey bars but be careful one loose grip will send you plunging back into a second round of mud.
Wanting a cool off after that last hurdle? We got you! Over under your way and hold that breath as you traverse a water pit to come out inches away from sweet victory.
The final lap. Make your way through a final lap and over the last 8' wall before crossing the finish line.
Enjoy a hot dog and cold beverage on us while listening to live music.
