Runners get dirty raising money for charity at MuckFest in Grayslake
There's nothing like a little mud to make the MuckFest 5K run a lot of fun.
The annual frolic Saturday at the Lake County Fairgrounds & Event Center in Grayslake raised money for the fight against multiple sclerosis.
MuckFest MS is built for laughs and muddy from the get-go. Teams run in the same wave to experience all the muddy shenanigans, epic spills and thrills together.
People could relive the adventure and celebrate their accomplishments with a free beer (or soda) in the MuckFestival. Spectators could enjoy their front-row seat for the start, finish and several signature obstacles. Little ones frolicked in the free Lil' Muckers play area.
