Event Description
The Vanguard Mud Race is a fundraiser that directly supports our unit’s mission and the people who carry it out every day. We also give back to the local community year‑round, and this event helps us continue that work with pride and purpose.
This race is our yearly challenge to South Georgia: grab your people, lace up, and take on the same spirit we bring to our mission. Every obstacle you climb, every pit you crawl through, and every splash of mud helps support our programs, our people, and the work we do throughout the year.
Whether you’re running solo or with a team, you become part of the Vanguard tradition; showing up, pushing hard, and supporting something bigger than yourself.
Your participation keeps this event growing and ensures the Vanguard Mud Race becomes a proud annual tradition for our unit and our community.

FAQ's
Yes. You must register and pay online so we know who is actually showing up to sprint, slide, and fling themselves through the course instead of just cheering from the sidelines.
Top finishers cash out. First, second, and third place snag a monetary prize, a medal, and the full gift-bag glory.
All competitors will start at 0700. All times starting at 0730 are for the non-competitors.
Registration for the 0700 race runs from 0600 to 0645. After that, each race time will close registration 15 minutes before its start.
Bring the bonuses: a change of clothes, a waterproof phone pouch, baby wipes, and a towel...because mud happens.
