Hi

I'm interested in doing tough mudder next year and wondered if anyone here wants to join me??

It's mid 2014

Anyone do last years?

This will be my first

But I am a mum of two and had 2 full natural labours so there's nothing I can't do.. Lol!!

    I haven't done it but a few women from my gym did this year. They are super fit women & they finished all right but they did complain about the amount of climbing. Make sure you training for upper body strength. :happy:

    Happy to do one with you. My partner and I did tough mudder earlier this year. I train. He doesn't. He vomitted the whole way. Tough mudder is easier than spartan. Terrain Training will being doing more obstacle training in Sydney and that is the best training. Eight week athlete is also a great training program.

    i did it in melbourne this year and will be doing it again next year.

    Yes get your strength training up, but get your running endurance up as well.
    IMO it's better to do it as a team, so you can help each other out.

    Thinking about doing Brisbane next year. I did True Grit this year. A friend did Mudder, he's a big guy but he managed fine. Spartan Race is the hard one these days, Mudder isn't as hard as it used to be. the 20km would get to me, 10km at True Grit did my head in (I'm not a distance runner)

    manda, if you are in Brisbane, have you see "the holt bolt"?

    google it, or just add a dot com :)

    It is a much shorter obstacle course (6-8 km) and runs 6 times a year about 20 minutes north of Brisbane.

    I volunteered at Tough Mudder spring Sydney yesterday just to suss it out. If I had people to do it with for sure I would do it. Maybe I should start training for it now!! Some of the people yesterday looked buggered :laugh:

    I did the Sydney Mud Run the other weekend and loved it. I've been googling similar (harder) events ever since.

    If I'm not in Europe when Tough Mudder happens in 2014, I'll be going. Super dooper fun!
