Merrell Down and Dirty - Philadelphia

Tobi1013

So, I am seriously considering registering for the Merrell Down and Dirty taking place in Philadelphia on July 17th and just wanted to hear from the folks in MFPland who have participated in the past or have already registered. I've completed several "regular" 5Ks and know that I can handle the distance, but how difficult are the obstacles? Did you compete alone or with a group? If I decide to register (and when I say I am seriously considering it, know that I am serious and have filled out the registration other than my credit card number! lol!) do you have any tips for preparing for the event?

Any information that you are willing to share is greatly appreciated! Also, if you are competing in Philly and are looking to add to your group (or have a buddy in the race!) I will definitely register, just know that I am not the fastest (around a 12 min/mile pace when in good health) and plan to walk as needed.

GrampsWooha

enjoy!
