Have been talking with Zombiechaser about a lot of specific exercises to utilize for preparedness for the upcoming Spartan Sprint; also everyone has see her awesome challenges, right?!

Essentially the Spartan Sprint scares the hell out of me... I'm sure many of us are in this boat too.

I've done my share of mud runs... One was 7 miles with 22 obstacles over a mountain of ski slopes in 5-20 degree weather and 3-4 feet of snow... And after that one? The Spartan Sprint still scares me...

I thought - I'm training and preparing myself pretty hard for this, "why not throw together a playlist to help prepare everyone for the Spartan Sprint?"

So with our powers combined - I give you "Runner #5's Zombiechasin' Preparedness Playlist..."



We'll be adding plenty of videos and notes as the days go on...

If you have any videos you think would be helpful as well - please post them or send them my way and I'll gladly add them to the list.

Let's do it Spartans! Wherever you are on the spectrum from "Yeah I totally got this" to "I'm scared ****less" - I'm pretty sure at least 80% of the June 1st runners will say "we're in this together" regardless of ever having done a mud run in the first place or not.

SPARTANS! DFTBA!

    Cpt. Apollo made a good suggestion -

    I just found and added some very basic running posture, running dos and donts, etc. videos to the start of the playlist.
