This was a funny article about mud runs for beginners.  It focuses on bigger events, but it is humorous and gives you an idea of what those can be like.  Your First Mud Run is much easier and less messy than the ones talked about in the article and a good one to try if one is unsure of trying one or not.   http://www.active.com/running/Articles/13-Tips-for-Mud-Run-Rookies

I have been running for over 35 years, having done practically every possible racing event or distance from the 100 meters through the marathon. I competed in varsity high school cross country and track at Saddle Brook High School in the mid-1980's, varsity cross country and track at Division II Pace University and finished well over 200 road races since then, including 20 marathons with a lifetime best of 3:14:50. I was the president of the Hoffmann LaRoche corporate running team for 7 years, growing the team from 25 to over 90 during his tenure. I coached many of these runners to achieve their goals, whether they were beginners or advanced. In 2011 I was an assistant coach for the Fair Lawn Recreation track team, helping the 10 to 14 year old group. I am currently personally coaching dozens of runners, from beginner levels to advanced levels and getting them to be prepared to meet their goals.
