    I have been training for my 1st half marathon. I am traveling to DC for it on March 17th! I have only ran 1 race in my life and it was a 5k.

    The rugged maniac looks a lot like the warrior dash! I'm sure you are going to have a great time!

    Be sure to post how it went! And pictures if possible!

    I finished the rugged manic and did every obstacle. I didn't set any records, but I completed my goal of finishing. I will try to post some pics this week. And maybe a sucess story when I reach 30 lbs which I hope will be next month.

    I signed up for the Warrior Dash in May. Looks like so much fun! I did the Zombie 5k which is similar with the obstacle courses and I can't explain how awesome it was. Many people walked a lot too so I wouldn't worry about whether you can run a 5k or not.

    Thanks for the feedback about the race! I really need to start working on my upper body strength so I can conquer the obstacles!

    I just checked out the Zombie 5k and it looks like so much fun! You must have had a blast!
