Eat Dirt Mud Run this weekend

The Eat Dirt Mud Run, Grand Rapid’s original muddy 5K run, will happen this Saturday, August 29 at Kentwood Community Church, 1200 60th St. in Kentwood. The messy, muddy obstacle and challenge-based 5K run, is designed to be safe and fun for the competitive athlete, fun seekers, and families. Over 3,000 participants are expected to run the course filled with mud pits, a 60-foot mudslide, tunnel crawls, walls, and slippery hill climbs. All proceeds of the Eat Dirt Mud Run benefit Never the Same, a local faith-based non-profit focused on peer-to-peer youth ministry.
