    I've not done that specific mud run - but I did two different mud runs last weekend and the weekend before. They are a blast!

    Make sure you don't wear good shoes - and make sure you double knot them! I almost lost mine!
    I also recommend against cotton anything - I wore cotton pants to the first one (which included two river crossings) and nearly lost them when they got wet and stretched out on me! My poor husband wore a cotton T shirt and chafed his poor nipples!

    thanks for the tips! No cotton/loose clothing!

    I Can't wait!

    I ran the race! It was a ton of fun! They still haven't posted results yet....
    The Warrior Dash looks like fun too! Anyone tried that?

    I want to do one but there aren't any close enough to AZ. Someday I may head back to my home ranges and aim for the one in Illinois.

    There was one on May 1st in Phoenix. You missed it! Do it next year! =)

    You can do the muddy buddy on Nov 14th http://muddy-buddy.competitor.com/event-info/phoenix/

    Ah, I should have been more specific

    There is no Warrior Dash close enough for me to do.

    I did the Mad Mud Run on May 1st and a 6 mile mud run on April 24th.
    I will have to look into the muddy buddy...

    Ah ha! I was confused since your pic is of you in a mud run! LOL

    Yeah, no warrior dashes near me either.... (I'm close to you, LV).
