Tough Mudder
Tough Mudder is an endurance event series in which participants attempt 10-to-12-mile-long (16 to 19 km) obstacle courses. It was co-founded by Will Dean and Guy Livingstone. The obstacles often play on common human fears, such as fire, water, electricity and heights.
The first Tough Mudder challenge was held in the United States in 2010, on a ski hill in Allentown, Pennsylvania. As of 2016, more than three million people worldwide have participated in Tough Mudder events.
In January 2020, the Tough Mudder was petitioned for involuntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy by creditors Valley Builders LLC, Trademarc Associates Inc. and David Watkins Homes Inc.
Spartan Race acquired Tough Mudder, which had been forced into involuntary bankruptcy proceedings, in February 2020. Spartan Race purchased Tough Mudder assets for $700,000 and the assumption of debts, including honoring prepaid tickets, which was approved by the bankruptcy court for the District of Delaware. As of January 2024, 19 Tough Mudder events were scheduled for the remainder of the year in the United States and Canada.
Tough Mudder was co-founded in 2010 by Will Dean and Guy Livingstone, both British subjects living in New York City. Dean, a former British counter-terrorism officer, had developed the idea for the company while studying at Harvard Business School, where the concept was a semifinalist in the school's annual business plan competition. It has been noted that Will Dean took the idea from Billy Wilson and his Tough Guy races staged in England since 1987. Dean and Livingstone, a former corporate lawyer, held the first Tough Mudder event on May 2, 2010 at Bear Creek Mountain Resort near Allentown, Pennsylvania. Promoted exclusively through Facebook advertising and word of mouth, the event drew more than 4,500 participants.
On May 2, 2013, Tough Mudder announced that it had reached one million total registrations since it started in 2010. The company had more than 700,000 participants in 2013, with events in the U.S., UK, Australia, Canada, and Germany. The Mudderella, created in 2013, is a 5-7 mile long obstacle course series targeted toward women.
In 2014 the company also expanded to Ireland and New Zealand, with an 11-to-12-mile (18 to 20 km) military obstacle course in Auckland, NZ.
In 2015, Tough Mudder hosted more than 50 events in seven countries across three continents.
