Some friends and I are gonna do the Atlanta Super in October. Was wondering if anyone has been a part of any and possibly has any advice as training goes?

    I've done a sprint. Work on upper body and burpees- and prepare for a steep course.

    Trail running and body weight exercises (burpees, pull ups, push ups, lunges, etc). Add weights for bonus points. If you can find some of the obstacles to practice on that is great, otherwise you can just wing them. Don't obsess about it too much, just work on getting in shape. I'm guessing GA is on a mountain side? Spartan Race loves to make you climb mountains. Sign up to receive their WOD's on their website (free) for ideas.

    No. I think it's stupid to put yourself at risk for injury like that.
