- We're ready to jump.
One, two, three!
(energetic music)
We're here at the MuckFest MS Mud Run.
It's an event to raise money for the National MS Society
and help people fight MS
and end the disease forever.
- [Voiceover] I'm ready to win, I'm going to win this thing.
- Well, you know, it's a charity mud run.
You don't need to win.
- [Voiceover] Okay.
I'm going to beat Ned at this.
- That's fine. That's fine.
We've got a whole crew, my wife is here.
There's so many people that have come out to support
whether it be runners or volunteers or staff members.
Hello!
What does this event mean to you?
- I have MS, so this is very meaningful to me.
- One of my best friends has MS and I do it for the cause.
- [Man] We are here with...
- Teresa Caceres.
- [ Man] We actually were running next to them
for like half of the Mud Run, right.
- Yes, I was diagnosed with MS in 2007.
I get numbness and tingling, I get vertigo,
I had symptoms for about 7 years
and had no idea what it was.
Doctors said I was fine, nothing's wrong with me
and I was adamant and I kept just going back to the doctor
until finally they gave me an MRI
and that's what diagnosed me.
- Because this really could afflict anybody.
- It could.
I lost all mobility in my right arm,
I couldn't pick up a pen.
It happened right after I had my son.
It was pretty horrible.
- But I just saw you swinging across ropes
and running through like muddy obstacles.
You're definitely kicking MS's butt for sure.
- I sure am kicking MS's butt.
So is my daughter and so is the 25 members who came.
- And I just love that all of my friends have come together.
- Everyone is super enthusiastic,
I absolutely love the energy,
everyone is just ready to get all dirty.
- [Voiceover] It means the world, you're doing something fun
just to continue the research of something
that can help millions of people.
It's the world to me.
- What was the most difficult obstacle for you?
- The one across the lake, that was really cool.
Just walking over, jumping over barrels, that was fun.
- [ Voiceover] The one where we, like, held on.
It was like a zipline.
- [ Voiceover] Oh the zipline ring.
- [Voiceover] I did a front flip
into the water at that point.
- [Voiceover] Being tagged and then being tackled.
- [Voiceover] The general rope net climb.
- What was that like?
- It was easy.
- I mean the reason I come here is because
I love laughing, I love seeing my dad run through the mud
and just the laughter everyday gets me through.
- Do some research, realize that it affects so many people.
MS Society has their website,
you can also look up MuckFest MS, it's all over the country.
- We just did a Mud Run, thanks so much
to the National MS Society.
For everyone that wants to fight MS, we are The Try Guys!
Argh, get muddy!
Get muddy!
- I'm just giving you a sexy water bath.
(energetic, rhythmic rock music)
- Why wash your butt alone
when you can wash your butt with friends?
(laughter)
