Mighty Titan, LLC, Lanesville

Amid the influx of adult-oriented mud runs, obstacle races, and challenges in recent years, Mighty Titan emerged with the novel idea to let kids get in on the action. Mighty Titan events, which are geared toward children aged 4–14, aim to get kids and families moving and spark a passion for fitness in the process.

At these events, youngsters push themselves to run faster and jump higher while overcoming obstacles, including zip lines, walls, and, of course, mud. Kids who complete the challenges exhibit what it takes to be a titan, and they head to the postrace kid-friendly party feeling more accomplished than if they just sat around all day trying to get taller.
