Round up your mates for fun in the mud on our 6km course (short cut an option). More than 30 man made obstacles, including a massive 260 metre zip wire, mud galore and an epic location in the Peak District. Are you up for a challenge?
Fantastic OCR event. Tougher than a tough mudder, muddier than a tough mudder and much more fun. I can't recommend highly enough.
Beautiful setting with a testing and quirky course and fantastic use of the natural terrain. This is our 3rd year and we will be back next year. Thanks to all involved; you guys make it 😁👍
Two Massive thumbs up for Bog Commander.
Best OCR I’ve done and don’t be fooled that it’s only 6k as it’s very very hard. I will be back next year 10 out of 10.
The most gruelling and beautiful OCR in the East Midlands.
Best OCR outside of the Big Races. Well priced, good course with a variety of obstacles. Location is stunning and the Team running it are friendly.
A mud run is part race, part obstacle course, part “why-am-I-doing-this-but-I-love-it” adventure! You’ll run, climb, crawl, and splash your way through muddy terrain designed to make you grin and groan in equal measure.
Bog Commander is around 6km (4km with the official shortcut) of pure muddy fun, jam-packed with obstacles throughout. It’s not about speed – it’s about conquering the course (and the mud) at your own pace!
Right in the glorious, squelchy heart of the Peak District. Think rolling hills, muddy trails, and scenery so beautiful you’ll forget how dirty you are.
Nope! Bog Commander is more about bragging rights than beating the clock. No pressure – just muddy pleasure. Those of you with a competitive nature might want to join the 10am wave and battle for first place. The other waves have a more relaxed feel.
Absolutely. There’s no shame in taking it slow. Power walk, shuffle, strut – whatever gets you through with a smile!
100%! Bog Commander welcomes all levels – from first-timers to seasoned mud monsters. Come as you are (just be ready to get messy).
Check our latest event info, but generally, muddy mayhem is for ages 18+. Younger mudlings aged 12+ are allowed on family-friendly waves, (11am, 11:30, and 12) when accompanied by adults. Sorry parents, that means you have to tackle the course with them. We have a special family rate for 2 adults, 2 kids.
Not at all. If you can laugh, wobble, and cheer your way through an obstacle or two, you’re fit enough. There’s no “perfect” shape or pace here.
Both work! Go solo for personal glory, or bring a team for shared shenanigans (and someone to help you out of the mud).
Clothes you don’t mind saying goodbye to. Think tight-ish sportswear (baggy stuff gets caught), synthetic fabrics (no cotton!), and a big ol’ grin.
Trail shoes with grip are ideal — and lace them tight! The mud is hungry, and it loves to eat footwear.
Yes! We’ve got change areas for you to peel off your muddy masterpiece of an outfit. Don't forget a towel and dry clothes.
A bin bag for your muddy gear, some cash for a celebratory burger and drink... and your sense of humor.
Give yourself plenty of time – at least a half an hour before your wave. Warm up, check in, soak in the vibe... and maybe psych yourself up a bit.
Yep! We've got spots for muddy motors and enthusiastic supporters. It's entirely free too! Just 5 minutes walk from the start/finish line.
Oh yes. You'll be hungry when you finish. We have a local produce burger van. Bacon butties, steak baps, burgers etc. Hot drinks and snacks too. Bring cash as the mobile coverage is patchy for the card machine.
We love a cheering crowd! Bring your mum, your mate, or your dog (on a lead) — the more the muddier. No charge.
Expect walls to climb, tunnels to crawl through, ropes to haul, zip lines, cargo nets, space hoppers, slides to name a few and lots of glorious, glorious mud. No two steps are ever quite the same!
Yes! Nothing is mandatory. Your body, your rules. Skip what doesn’t feel right – there’s no judgment here.
We take safety seriously – trained staff, marshals, and first aid are all on-site to keep things muddy but safe. Having said that, outdoor adventuring isn't without risk and you will be asked to sign a liability waiver form before taking part.
Let’s put it this way… if you’re clean at the end, you’re doing it wrong.
Yes – sort of. Think more "hose rinse-off" than spa treatment. It’ll get the worst off, but maybe bring a towel you don’t love
You sure do. And you’ll wear that medal like a badge of honour. Mud warrior status: unlocked. We'll also be giving you a memento. More information to come as to what that might be.
Yes, please! Volunteers are the true heroes of the bog – and you'll get free entry for a future event, too.
Perfect! That just means extra mud. We go ahead rain or shine – it’s all part of the adventure.
Spectator dogs? Yes, if they’re on a lead and friendly. Muddy course running dogs? Probably best left at home with a bone.
Yes – we offer a bag drop area to stash your clean clothes and dry socks for the finish line victory strut. Please don't bring any valuables though as we can't guarantee their security.
