Anyone ever participate in the TOUGH MUDDER?
I'll be doing my first one in October! :bitenails:
Doing mine in May :/ ..................
By the time I got to the starting line I'd be out of breath.
I did my first one two weekends ago with some guys from work. Great fun and a solid workout. The entry fee was a bit steep I thought, but I'll do it again next year fo'shizzle! Good times..
This was our course - http://toughmudder.com.au/events/melbourne/
My completion time was 2.32:17
Tip: Don't wear your new expensive runners and PT kit..mud kinds destroys them :D, oh, and tape your feet to combat blisters from wet footwear. I wore some compression shorts under my PT shorts to prevent any chaffing from wet clothing, it worked a treat.
Enjoy!
nice!Quote:

One of our lads threw some sports tape in with his camel back which was applied to the webbing between fingers which helped some. Good thing about that is it can be easily ripped off and reapplied when soaked and muddy.
Oh yeah. I knew there was another reason.Quote:

Ok cool..Since this one's in Oct, it's going to be cold here and I'm thinking maybe the gloves football players wearing will help with the gripping especially during the rope climb.Quote:
