    The New England Warrior Dash is also being held in Thompson, CT on June 9th. I signed up for that one before they set up the one in September... but who knows, I might sign up for that one too!

    I think I am going to do the September 22nd one. I am doing the Spartan Race in NY on June 2nd, so I am waiting to see how that goes before I commit to another.

    It is an obstacle / mud race. Check out the web site. It looks fun!

    Are you guys planning on doing the same wave? I'm considering it but I have never run a race before (5K on June 23 will be my first ever) and I'm not sure

    Who were you talking to? It looks like Mockingbird and JP are doing the same one, but I don't think anyone has signed up for the September race yet.

    I did the Warrior dash in June and am doing the one in September as well! It was such a blast! I thought that it was challenging but a lot of fun! I'm all signed up for the Tough Mudder in New Jersey this October, hopefully I'll be ready!

    Basically, train your upper body. There's a lot of upper body strength involved in pulling yourself over walls and climbing. At least try every obstacle! And have fun :-)
