Are you Tough Enough?

 

Tough Mudder

Then the naturally refreshing Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia, is the place to be in August 2013 for the fun and fitness challenge when Tough Mudder and the 7 Sunshine Coast Marathon & Community Run Festival will be back-to-back events.

Tough Mudder Sunshine Coast will be held on 17-18 August 2013. The hard-core obstacle course is one of the fastest growing sports, attracting almost half a million participants worldwide in 2012. Originally designed by British Special Forces, Tough Mudder is considered one of the toughest events on the planet.

Tough Mudder Operations Manager George Spring said "the Sunshine Coast event will be the biggest and best event held to date."

Sunshine Coast Destination Ltd CEO Steve Cooper said, events such as these are in the DNA of the Sunshine Coast.

He said the region plays host to the third largest triathlon in the world in Noosa, and attracts sporting teams and sporting events because of the year-round temperate climate and natural attractions.

Tough Mudder appeals to participants because the event is about both physical and mental toughness. Grab some friends and form a team, or take the challenge on yourself. The event promises to unlock a true sense of accomplishment, while having a great time in a region known for its natural beauty.

7 Sunshine Coast Marathon

Sunshine Coast Mayor Mark Jamieson has challenged competitors to back up the Tough Mudder event with participation in the 7 Sunshine Coast Marathon & Community Run Festival held a week later on 25 August.
