    I'm am doing TM Tampa in Nov

    I have done 4 mud runs such as the Warrior Dash

    My training plans includes:

    - Insanity/Asylum VOL 1 & 2/ Focus T25 (when it comes out)
    All of Shaun T's intense workout programs are GREAT to get your body ready! One mud run I did there was so many steep hills it was very dangerous to just run so I did a lot of bear crawling climbing up the hills or thru tunnels since i didn 't want cuts on my knees. I was able to hold myself up for awhile since bear crawls I did at home.

    As well as upper body workouts, his programs are great for lower body strength. In asylum he has us do long jumps. And in TM there this obstacle where there are quite of few ditches you have to jump over.

    - C25K than C210K

    - Doing as many 5K mud runs as many as I can between now and Nov (if you volunteer for mud runs you either get to do it free or at a discount - I am actually being a volunteer first for TM to cut down the ticket cost)

    - Trail running

    - Pulls Ups and monkey bar training

    Once my husband comes back from Korea, I will probably do CrossFit with him.

    Oh and I plan to fill my garden tub with ice and water about twice a month.
    My husband did TM GA in 2012 and it was FREEZING that day! He just did in shorts! lol I was bundled up and still cold! lol
