Race day tips
When the training is done and race day arrives, here are our top tips and things to remember to see you around the course.
| Address: | Tough Mudder London South, Holmbush Estate, Crawley Road, Faygate, West Sussex, RH12 4SE |
| Date: | Friday 20th September 2024 |
| Time: | 11am-4pm |
| IMPORTANT: | Government ID will be required to gain access to the grounds on the day. Please ensure to bring this with you. |
Remember your ID and ticket - An absolute must!
You won’t get in without them! Get ready to flash your ID at check in, alongside your QR code which will be scanned on arrival.
Government ID’s will be needed (no work passes), and your QR code can be found on your confirmation email – to find it, search “Registration confirmation for Vanguard Tough Mudder 2024”, it will look a little something like this:
Check your information pack
This contains EVERYTHING you need to know about your Vanguard Tough Mudder event. Start times, what’s in the village, obstacle/course highlights and all the FAQs – you can access this by logging into your Tough Mudder event using your professional email address.
Prepare for all eventualities
This is the UK and although that normally means grey skies and rain, sometimes the weather can be unpredictable. Check the forecast for RH12 4SE the night before. If it is cold and raining you’ll need extra layers (for during and afterwards) and extra bags but if it’s looking sunny, please be sure to bring sun cream and plenty of water.
Bring clean clothes and a towel to dry off
No matter what happens, you’ll be muddy. Bring a clean set of clothes and a towel to dry yourself off after the hose down (yes, the hose down). And if you still haven’t prepped your event day gear, then don’t forget to check out Tough Mudder’s advice on the best kit to wear on course: What to wear to Tough Mudder.
Get some carbohydrates in at breakfast
Similarly to the night before, priming the body with carbohydrates at breakfast is one way to ensure that your performance does not suffer during the day. Stick to breakfast meals and products you have used in the build up to The Vanguard Tough Mudder Takeover; porridge, toast, cereal, bagels and fruit juice are all great choices.
We've got you a bag - don't bring the plastic
Believe it or not, the most common question at Tough Mudder’s Information Desk is if there’s any spare plastic bags. We don’t want the plastic, so we’ve got you a spare bag at the finish line.
Map out a meeting point
If you’re coming with a team, then pick a point to meet in case you get separated throughout the day. Of course, you’ll take on the course together, but once you’ve got your headband and people are disappearing off to get changed, find food and drink, it’s easy to lose track. Plus, with so many people in one place and the fact that Tough Mudder takes place in a big old field, don’t expect much signal. So, pick a spot and agree with everyone that if you get split up, that’s where you’ll reconvene – ‘The Vanguard Village’ makes most sense.
Eat a meal you enjoy afterwards - you deserve it
Eat a meal you enjoy, this is a celebration. The meal should be rich in carbohydrates to top up those stores in the body which are likely to be pretty low having just completed the course. There will be plenty to choose from on the day, so enjoy something special on us.
Get active with Vanguard
Enjoy the day – this is meant to be fun!
