5 Tips for Crushing Your New Year’s Resolution

January has officially arrived! And along with the start of the new year comes the pressure of those pesky New Year’s resolutions. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, they aren’t going anywhere.

But you're in luck! We happen to have a few tips up our sleeve for sticking to your goals...

No one wants to stick to a resolution that feels like work. From your training to your team-building, be sure to keep things fun. Map out some new 5K routes and go exploring. Or substitute your local park’s jungle gym for our famed Mt. Muck-imanjaro and become the ninja warrior of your neighborhood.

Tell everyone you know about your plans. You’re much more likely to follow through and achieve your goals when you share them with others. Whether you declare your commitment on a highway billboard or via social media is up to you. Just be sure to say it loud and proud.

Rome wasn’t built in a day, or so we’re told. So think of this New Year’s resolution as your very own Colosseum. It’s going to take some thoughtful planning, a solid foundation, and then slow and steady work. Brick by brick. Or in this case, step by step. By simply putting one foot in front of the other you may be surprised at where you end up.

Remember Tip #2? Now take it one step further and convince your friends to get on board. Trust us when we tell you that conquering your goals are even better with a team — the more the merrier, the more the muckier.

What’s the best part of conquering your resolution? Celebrating all of your hard work! Be sure to take a moment to savor your victory and reward yourself for your efforts.

Luckily, there’s one New Year’s resolution that’s easy to keep: resolve to jump into the mud with us at a 2019 MuckFest near you. MuckFest features 18 obstacles primed to make you fly and climb higher than you've ever gone before.

Conquer the 5K course with friends and afterward proudly wear your new t-shirt and hoist your free beer as you relive the adventure and celebrate your accomplishment.
