Today Pretty Mike sits down with Scott Davis, Owner, of Mud Factor. Mud Factor is a national mud run series that comes to town to get first timers and people who are interested in mud runs a chance to get out, get muddy, have fun, and not drop $200 in entry fees to do it. Scott knows where he wants to be in the OCR world with his events. With all the introductory races folding just before and during covid we are glad to see Mud Factor still moving forward. Mud Factor is also the only national series race that comes to Alaska. If you are in the Great North take the time and run it in Anchorage.

BeastNet and The Dealers of Hope will be running at Mud Factor Portland this weekend and if you are available, you need to join us.
