World's Toughest Mudder is coming up fast. TMHQ has just released the official rules for 2018 and we spend this entire episode breaking them down.
Many of the rules are unchanged from years past, but there are several new ones to be aware of. Among the new rules: Age Group award, $10,000 bonus for the winning man at 115 miles and the winning woman at 95 miles, and no more bibs for most laps overnight.
We also talk about the number one cause of disqualification (Hint: It's quitting), how to get medical treatment without being removed from the race and what to do if you need water wings at the obstacles with water.
