5 Team Adventure Races for 2013

The Rugged Maniac isn’t the longest race, but it’s loaded with 20 tough obstacles, including a 12-foot wall climb, a mud crawl under barbed wire, and a fire jump. Do this race with your less-fit buddies—perhaps those who can’t complete more than a three-mile-run, but still want a mud-run challenge. Hell, throw on a costume and make it a party out of it. Mud, fire, and some beer to replenish at the end — consider this a warm-up run to the Tough Mudder. In 2013, the race will take place in at least 21 cities. ruggedmaniac.com
