It is in Louisville in May. I REALLY want to do it. I don't run (because of back issues), but I can walk it and do most of the obstacles. You are allowed to skip the ones you can't do, you just can't "win" if you do that. I'm alright with not winning. I just want to do it.

Any advice on preparing for it? Anyone else planning to do it?

    I'm planning on doing the Down and Dirty Mud Run in September. My only advice is to do a lot of arm and upper body work to build up some arm strength. Most times, there is a monkey bar type obstacle and other obstacles where you have to pull yourself up and over something. :laugh:

    If you can, go to Youtube and look for videos of past races. They look like a blast.
