MUD. Lot’s of it! That’s what the team of 8 Rubicon Project team members from the LA office  experienced on Saturday, June 18th at the Camp Pendleton Mud Run.The Mud Run is a 10K race through mud, water, and obstacles. All proceeds go to the YMCA Armed Services- nice!

After a 5:30 am wake up call, we met at the office and piled into cars to carpool down to Camp Pendleton (close to San Diego). When we arrived, we joined 5,000 other trail runners, military personnel, people in costumes, and lot’s of smiling faces ready to get dirty! In the “chute” (the area where we all gathered waiting to take off on foot) there was a huge dance party and our energy was alive and kicking. After taking off, some of us ran for fun and others ran to compete (nice job Bill Willits who took 7th place!) but we all met up at the end to congratulate one another and relax.

It was a great bonding day for us and honestly, a ton of fun! The best part was the lake swim and the 30 foot Mud Wall crawl. Boot camp? Here we come…

Our spring 2010 kickball team

Our spring 2010 kickball team

Two of our cultural values are competition and fun. Some people don’t think these two go well together but we do! Here at the Rubicon Project, we have several different sports teams that play in local leagues. Anyone in the company who is interested can play and it’s all in the name of some good competition and a fun time.

If basketball, soccer, kickball, or softball is your thing- we’ve got you covered! With sports teams in Los Angeles and New York City, our teams share battle stories with the rest of the company as we go out there and try to make everyone proud. Not only is joining a sports team a great way to spend time with our co-workers, it’s a really great bonding experience for all of us. Our friends and family also are invited to play, which makes our Rubicon Project family even larger.

Note: If you would like to play in the Venice kickball league (pictured) please sign up at www.planetsocialsports.com! We love new competition :)
