    Another one that's a bit scary is the Warrior Dash. No idea what that is, but it puts me in mind of the movie Braveheart.

    That's a pretty accurate picture to have about Warrior Dash. Climbing walls, running through mud, and fire all parts of warrior dash.

    Scary to me is also the burpee. Torture

    Well now the warrior dash sounds kinda fun, except that bit about fire.

    Burpee sounds like something I should say excuse me for!

    Man, I am really stretching the brain for that one. The code name for the American government's response to an invasion from space. Or what Fijians wear to dinner.

    Oowah, I guess C25K doesnt really cut it, then!

    Obliques. Sounds lovely and mathematical, and then there you are on the twisty turney torture machine with the trainer looking at the rotation. Aargh.
