    Tough Mudder here! Ten miles through 25 obstacles, this Saturday near Austin TX; my first of this kind. I'm just hoping I can lick this cold first.

    Love Your Body 6k. First race in my Vibrams. Next weekend I'm doing a 5k night run under blacklights with body paint & glow sticks. Should be a blast! Also doing a costumed 5k on Oct 29th

    Good luck! We have (had?) one at a local ski area, it looks hardcore.

    Good luck everyone, my race isn't till February, I wish there was something fun to run close to home for me.

    Those relays are supposed to be a BLAST! Are you on a competitive team or just running for fun?

    I am! I'm running a 10k. Unfortunately weather predictions have the temp in mid to high 80s and the start isn't until noon.

    So if I don't melt... I'll be running!

    Ouch and ouch to both the temps and start time. Slow it down and carry water!

    I jumped on a mixed open team last month and based on our estimated time to finish and the results from last year, we have a shot of finishing in the top 10 for that division. The team is more for fun, but if we do well, that's just a bonus.
