Does anyone here do the tough mudder events or any of the other kinds they have. I was thinking about doing one but wanted to know how hard it really is. The running may be the biggest problem for me.

Are there any groups on here for these kinds of events? I would love to team up with some people and try it out.
They also have a workout they say people do for this event on their site which i might try.

    In august I'm doing one - www.mudathlon.com
    I'm a little nervous too... but I'm also going with friends that don't ever work out.
    So it's just going to be a fun and unconventional girls weekend out!

    I have a friend that wants to do one. The one he's looking at looks insane, though.

    So I TOTALLY want to do the Tough Mudder competition! I have been looking at the site and "like" ed it on my facebok page so I could get all the little update's. I have heard- first hand- that this is an extremely diffucult competition. If your concerned about the running, train to enhance your own cardiovascalar endurance! Run a little farther each week till you feel you have achieved your goal. You don't even have to "place" in the competition, just finish, as the monies go to help wounded soldiers! Good luck! Perhaps we'll meet at the staring line somewhere! Tough Mudder Seattle :happy: 2012!!!:happy:

    There are several event of this type that you can do. In order of alleged difficulty (easiest to most) they are:

    Warrior Dash
    Spartan Sprint Race
    Tough Mudder
    Super Spartan Race
    Spartan Beast Race
    Spartan Death Race

    There is also Muddy Buddy and Metro Dash, which are similar.

    I have not done any of them, but plan on trying them all. I will be doing Warrior Dash and Spartan Sprint race next year.

    Me and my husband were looking at tough mudder and really wanting to do one next year, possibly in MN. I think there is some training you can do for them....on the website??:tongue: Lookes crazy but I think it would be so much fun, especially to get a group of friends together and go. And they also sell spectator tix if some friends don't want to do it but want to go along and watch!!
