Has anyone ever participated in a Spartan race? I did an obstacle race last November and LOVED it. I am thinking of doing this 5K for the bragging rights (this one looks a lot tougher than the obstacle race I did before, :laugh:)

Experiences? Thoughts? Anyone else intrigued? :bigsmile:

    I'm intrigued.

    This September I am participating in a Zombie Run, kind of similar to a Warrior Dash, except for the added fact that "zombies" chase you between obstacles.

    I wanted to do that one but none of my friends were willing to join me and I didn't want to do something like that by myself. It looks awesome! You will have a blast!

    Did a Warrior Dash the other weekend which I believe is similar - a little over 5K distance with 13 obstacles, mostly climbing walls of some sort but lots of mud at the end! A total blast!!

    Er that would do my head in and I would end up running away screaming LOL!

    Seriously, when I was younger and played tag or something like that, if anybody chased me, I used to run around like a loony-toon screaming really high-pitched, I don't think I will have changed :laugh:

    I did it!! I signed up for this race! My boyfriend (wonderful man that he is) agreed to do it with me and that was the last motivating push I needed. I am so excited to challenge myself with something like this. I did an obstacle race last November and loved how great it felt to finish. This one is going to be even tougher and I'm sure during it I will be in pain but the feeling afterward will be well worth it!

    Hello, my name is Michelle, and I am addicted to the challenge of racing :devil:
