PTBOCanada Featured Post: 21 Reasons Mudmoiselle (Formerly Devil's Run) Rocks
/Mudmoiselle (formerly known as Devil's Run) is an empowering, fun day for women that takes place on July 11th at Devil's Elbow.
Here are some fun facts you need to know about this year's event, with all funds raised going to the Canadian Cancer Society to help fight cancer...

5. There are 3 new obstacles this year—and more mud!
