Tough Mudder
Go on then, who's done it/doing it?
The org will have representation at the Yorkshire event this year, I'll leave them to announce themselves but they're out there. |

Tough Mudder
Next month! Is she well into her training now then? We've got until September so 4 months to get into shape...and I don't mean round, like I am currently.
I'm treating it as an incentive to train my self fit again but can't help thinking its aimed more for people who already are fit but just want to prove it. |

Tough Mudder
Glad we've signed up Matt - as you say it's a good incentive to up the training.
Did 3 mud runs last year to build up to a mudder but I've been dying to get a TM under my belt for a couple of years now!! Oorah! |

Re: Tough Mudder
I did Kettering last year - I definitely wouldn't do it in the winter but a great day in the sunshine.. I was fat and unfit and did a 6mile run a few days before as training. Its about 11 miles? With stops for obstacles and going at a steady pace most should make it without too much issue. The mud mile Is immense! The half pipe at the end is a nightmare though. We ended up skipping it as there was a girl in a neck brace on one half getting treatment and a queue of several hundred people waiting for the other side as people ran and failed to get up.. through the electric eels and off for beers lovely.
Oh and the electric thing where you crawl through whilst they spray water over you will have grown men squealing.. got a vid somewhere and you can hear the jolts and the cries as people suffer...horrid at the time but looking back rather funny Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2 |
