My first Race!

My first race will be the Tough Mudder in Florida

I heard about this competition a few months back and I've never tried anything like that and know that it will be a huge success for me if I was able to compete in it.

I created an invite for my friends on facebook and didn't realize how many of them wanted to join in with me and that along with this site has pushed me even harder with my health and fitness goals.
Using myfitnesspal to track my daily caloric intake and exericeses has helped me tremendously.

I still have a long way to go before the December event and plan on losing 30-40 more pounds so I can actually finish the race.
Training has been hard as I am doing circuit training M-W-F and then some type of cardio on Tues and Thursday.

Now I just need to really concentrate on eating better and phase out the social alcohol consumption.

If any of you have done this race I would love to hear from you and how you trained for it.

You can do this.

It's a 10-12 mile obstacle course event. Tons of craziness for sure like wall climbing, mud crawling, running through live wire, and when you are done you get a beer. lol
