Leimanu Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 A couple people have mentioned this so I looked it up. It looks AWESOME. I'm not much of a runner, or really strong YET, but having the obstacles makes it look cool, and I like how its motto is about making a personal challenge and supporting each other - kinda like NerdFitness The obstacles look insane. The scariest ones for me are climbing over the wall or the rope climb. And who runs thru the electrified field?So, who's done one? Quote <--<< Daughter of Artemis >>--> Link to comment
Loren Wade Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Gimme a couple days and I'll answer. Mine is Saturday. Quote lobro's a druid? twitter | fb Link to comment
Grosby Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I can't wait to hear Loren! Leimanu, I'm doing it in 2013. I'm a bit of a runner, and I'm getting stronger. Did you see the circuit exercises/routine they recommend? I'm hoping to start that up about 6 months before the mudder Quote Link to comment
tatpunk Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 This is one of my goals. I so badly want to do this!!!! It looks amazing/awesome/badass And good luck Loren! Quote Link to comment
Leimanu Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Wooooooooooooah, Loren! Good luck! Let us know, let us know, letusknow!!!Grosby - I looked up the Tough Mudder tonight, and suddenly decided I want to do it in 2013, too! I did see the training section. I think I'll make it a 6wk challenge some day. Quote <--<< Daughter of Artemis >>--> Link to comment
Sco Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I didn't know what it was either...but it looks awesome! At some point we should totally have a team of NF people do this... And good luck Loren! Quote "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit." - Aristotle If you have the inspiration, you have the talent. Strive to be happy.

Gainsdalf the Whey Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 It's on my epic quest list to finish one and feel like I could do another. I plan on 2013 as well, but if I can get my upper body strength to the point that I can do the monkey bars, then I may do one late this year.

AprilMay Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 This is my ultimate goal for being a general badass. The two youngest of my cousins have both finished one together and I would like to join them at it soon. Talk about a way to keep a close family. I'm definitely doing it barefoot though, they said the swimming part with their boots on just killed them with the weight for the rest of the run. FiveFingers all the way!

PeterRabbit Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I did the tough mudder in Florida this past year. It was on of the toughest things I have ever done, but you finish with a real sense of accomplishment. There is definitely a strong team aspect to the event and I would suggest signing up with a team. Quote Link to comment
