Sooooooo I saw this on living social adventures, and being that I was feeling restless and in need of adventure I thought why the heck not.

Now that I have no idea what I am in for I am wondering if anyone has done one before, or will be doing this? It's in two weeks, I need to know what I have just got myself into :)

    I am going to be running in the irvine mud run :) I checked this one out, and it's sounds fun!
  • I wanted to do this one but I waited & now the price is double & I can't afford it lol :( I am curious to hear about it though so I can join next time.

    That is why I bought it as soon as I got the email from living social! It's not that close to me but I didn't want to miss out on the low price. But I found out that you can do it for like $79 later in the day not thru living social so If you want to get more info email the place it's being held!

    I signed on with my buddy and it's my first one too. I did a little bit of research so I could feel somewhat prepared. This is what I found:
    Don't wear cotton, unless you like carrying on extra mud and water; now that is real water retention.
    Use shoes you don't care about and you may want to tape (duct tape) them if you feel you could lose them in the mud. No cotton socks!
    Bring extra clothes and a towel so you can change and not ruin yours or your friend's car.

    HAVE FUN!!!
