Tough Mudder Infinity has made its Middle East debut in AlUla, Saudi Arabia, presenting a considerable prize pool that ranks among the largest in obstacle course racing (OCR) history, reaching nearly half a million dollars.

Set against the historical backdrop of AlUla, an ancient oasis city, the event welcomes participants globally to engage in an 8-hour competition. The challenge is straightforward: complete as many laps of the Tough Mudder course as possible.

Complementing the main event, there are 5KM and 10KM Tough Mudder races on the same day, making the cardio-intensive program more accessible to participants of varying skill levels. The total prize money for the event is an impressive USD 480,000, with individual winners in both the men's and women's races each taking home USD 80,000.

Beyond the competition, participants can immerse themselves in the AlUla experience with an exclusive campsite and accommodation packages that include meals and weekend transportation. Post-event celebrations on Saturday will feature a bonfire, live music, and entertainment in the Mudder Village.
