Scared of my Warrior Dash tomorrow. Help:(

rore1

I was going to only post on my wall but decided to reach out to my MFP community;) My warrior Dash is tomorrow. At first it was a bit of a joke. Now it is EXTREMELY important on so many levels I could not start to explain. So here is the prob. I am VERY VERY scared of heights!! VERY!! the ontario Dash has A LOT of heights!! and a slippery steep slope:(I am worried about the awful heat and the dark tent thingy...... I need to act like a big girl!!but I am freaking out..... So how about some of you give me hints and tips and some of you kick my immature a@# into gear?

Are you going tot he one at Horseshoe valley/ I was going to sign up for that and then though maybe next year lol It is just for fun so have a great time and dirty.

I did the Warrior Dash last year in Texas. It is a blast! Remember, it is really just for fun....I agree with Chantal -- have a great time and get dirty!!!

I know each Dash is a little different. I too am wary of heights, but none of the obstacles were scary in the height department. Even climbing up the slippery slope wasn't bad. I was definitely nervous going in -- but in the end it was a freakin' blast!!! And I was SO proud when I finished.

I KNOW you can do it!!!!

YES! i'm doing the one here in St Louis later in October and i have been freaking about the heights, too! like climbing over the rope walls and stuff. eeeeep! the leaping over fire doesnt scare me, but climbing over a rope wall does. ha!

Check out my mfp blog, there are some tips there. And I don't recommend wearing short shorts. It's a possibility that you will scratch your knees up a little, so I recommend capris. But don't be freaked out. It's fun as hell.
