    I'm impressed that you were able to carry another FULL SIZED human being on your back while running! He must be at least 30 pounds heavier than you. Amazing.

    Incredible! Nice job. I'm also impressed that you're able to carry someone on your back while you run. I know so people who have done tough mudders and when they get to that part, it amazes me.

    I'm not gonna say I was 'running'. Shuffling as quickly as possible without dropping him would be more accurate. But we made it and it was an awesome moment for me because I genuinely thought I was gonna collapse as soon as he was on my back.

    That's an amazing transformation! And you did it all without the help of Arctic Zero, how is that even possible!!!

    I regret few things about the past 20 or so months...but spending money on Artic zero is one of them. My taste buds didn't forgive me for days.

    :blush: Be there=help push my butt over walls and such, lol.

    To those who may not know this lady is not only beautiful but amazingly strong. I saw her making full grown men question their strength as she blazed through obstacles.

    Congrats!! Wow!! How long did you train for the TM? What made you feel like you were ready to tackle that beast? I would love to do one some day!

    Also I love that every cookie picture is a chocolate chip cookie. Y'all know where it's at.

    Train is...well perhaps an exaggeration, haha. I did a little running to work on endurance and stuck with my usual strength training, with some added grip strength work, for about 2 months before hand. But I still had my butt handed to me by the course, lol. But I suppose the first time around is always an exercise in"not as prepared as I hoped" I felt like I was ready because...well because I was. My friends were going, it was close to home, my husband agreed in order to support me...I just knew it was right.

    It's fun, for sure, and can make you look at yourself differently. Deep thoughts while doing the March of Death. Or maybe hallucinations.

    :blush::sob: Thank you so much, I can't begin to tell you what that means to me. I'm so glad you took up and are enjoying lifting and if I helped even a tiny bit with that I couldn't be happier.

    Great attitude = great success! I didn't realize that part of tuff mudder was to carry a partner...my hubby and I just carried each other around the house to see if we could do it:) Not easy, but doable. We've actually been invited to join a team this year, and we may give it a try.

    You have given me hope and encouragement...I want to do a TM in 2016 (I know I'm no where ready). Great job!

    You may be more ready than you think and, really, even the most prepared person will get their butt kicked a little bit. Good luck to you in your future muddy endeavors!

    Do it. It's a great experience, truly.
