Hiya -
I'm A.J. - a 27 year old, living in New England. I'm an intermediate runner, training for a Tough Mudder in August. I'm relatively fit, but I'm really struggling with stepping it up to the next level in preparation for this event. I've got way too many excuses to sell to myself!


I'd love some new friends to chat with, especially if you are in a similar boat. :)

    Hi, I'm Jenn. I have recently finished my first 5K and I'm training to run a 10K now. On top of that I've signed up to do the Warrior Dash in September, yikes :embarassed: I have to start strength training! I don't have much experience but you are welcome to add me :flowerforyou:

    Hi There -

    I did the tough mudder last year. It was definitely a great experience, and it motivated me to get into the best shape I've ever been in. I'd definitely encourage you to run and do as much cardio as possible beforehand - I found the endurance portion was more challenging then the obstacles/strength parts.

    I've fallen off quite a bit since then and am trying to get back in shape for a triathlon, so it would be great to help motivate each other!

    Hi! I'm a runner (officially) finishing a half marathon last year and another one in March of this year. A goal of mine is to do a Tough Mudder this year. I run a lot, but I think I need direction when it comes to anything more. Sometimes I feel very small and lost when I do weights at my gym.. Let's work together and make this happen!
