“We’re thrilled to welcome Tough Mudder and its participants back to Northstar this summer and fall. It was incredible witnessing the determination and drive of those who participated last year, and I can only imagine what obstacles the course will feature this season at Northstar,” said Bill Rock, chief operating officer at Northstar. “One of the most impactful parts of the event is the pep talk given as each wave of participants gets ready to head out onto the course. Tough Mudder’s support of the Wounded Warrior Project is an incredible reminder of the sacrifice our military gives on behalf of our country every day.”
