Jeep Tough Mudder returns to the UAE with two new events

Prepare to push yourself to your physical limits because the Jeep Tough Mudder is returning to the UAE this February – and happening in Umm Al Quwain for the very first time.

Never had the chance to put on an orange headband and get muddy? The Tough Mudder challenge is made up of a 10 to 12-mile obstacle course for participants (or “Mudders”) to complete – and likely get dirty in the process.

Want to put your skills to the test? There are two chances to bag a Tough Mudder orange headband.

The first Jeep Tough Mudder of the year will take place at Umm Al Quwain’s Mangrove Beach on Saturday February 26. It’s the very first time the challenge is happening in the emirate.

This will be followed by a Tough Mudder challenge at Fujairah’s Adventure Park on Saturday March 19.

For both of the upcoming events, Mudders will be able to choose between a five kilometre route, with over 13 obstacles, or a 10 kilometre route with over 25 obstacles to contend with.

Challenges including the Pyramid Scheme, an obstacle that requires teamwork to make it up the slippery slope, and the Spread Eagle, where you have to successfully get across a tightrope.

Get friends, family, or even colleagues, involved because the Tough Mudder challenge aims to bring community and teamwork to the fore.

If challenging yourself and getting active were part of your 2022 goals then the Jeep Tough Mudder might be something to consider. Tickets are available online for both events.
