Tough Mudder?

Anyone into doing Tough Mudders? I am signed up to do my first one in June in Vermont.

Looking forward to it! Currently I am running 6-8 miles 4/5 days a week. the next month or so I am going to start some weight training, and do more trail runs rather than just pavement.

 

I have done every obstacle race there is. Tough mudder is my least favorite

 

Why is that?

 

It was a ton of running with not many obstacles. And they were blasting with water from a fire hose. People were getting hurt it was stupid.

My fav was battle frog for the difficulty. Savage race is also fun to run with friends/not serious. 7 miles and 30 obstacles is a great combo.

 

I'm excited about it. I haven't done any OCR before. I signed up for this one to help me get in better shape. I think I'll enjoy it/ the concept of the OCR and looking forward to doing more in the future.

Just went to look up battle frog and looks like they shut down their operations

 

Really? Shit that was by far the best one! Tough mudder isn't terrible, you will have fun. It's just my least favorite out of all of them.

Savage race is very chill and fun

 

doing one here in may that is 12 miles with 20 obstacles, not really looking forward to it as it will be in the mid to high 90's by then.

 

In the new england area they are starting to have Spartan races in the winter at ski resorts. Might have to look into them for next year

 

My mudder is pretty tough, mind you most mudders are tough. They did have to give birth and I hear that's pretty painful.

 

I've done Spartan and Warrior Dash. Don't waste your money on Warrior Dash. I loved Spartan though.

 

Last weekend was the tough mudder I did. Had a ton of fun. It was a hard course, up and down a mountain a couple times. Definitely going to be doing more ocr in the future.
