About this race
For just a few hours, on just a few days of the year, the tides are low enough in this area of the Bay to run the ocean floor. It's muddy, it's rough, it's a blast! Dig out your old shoes and come get stuck with us. If you're up for a bit of fresh, authentic, seaside fun, then this will be one of the most memorable experiences of your life!
