  • I did this one. I wouldn't say its an obstacle run but more of a fun run. Lots of foam and bouncy type things filled with foam. It also attracts people who might not be attracted to the Spartan and Tough Mudder runs. I did it with a group and enjoyed. The huge inflatable slide went down for awhile but they brought in…
  • They say that around six months before the wedding is a good time to look. Plenty of time for alterations but not so much time that you'll see a picture of another dress and fall in love. Just a word to the wise... research who you have alter your dress as well. My sister went to a place based on the advice of one friend.…
  • People always suggest couch to 5k which I find is a great program but not a great program for everyone. Another option to look into is Jeff Galloway for a run/walk program. It might help you ease into it. I agree with the people who suggested proper shoes, that has made all the difference in the world to me. I can't help…
  • Basic basic terms... a foam roller helps with tight and sore muscles. I want to say that I got fitted for shoes and they were never the right ones for me.

  • I'm almost positive when you set up your MFP there is a spot to say what kind of lifestyle you have. I went from working on my feet all day (at a day care) to being at a desk and I'm almost positive I switched that on MFP.
  • There are so many variables in this. What ocr are you trying to win? There's a huge difference from a local mud run to Spartan to Tough Mudder. The obstacles, the course, the competition will all be different based on which race you're doing. Also whats the terrain? I've done an ocr with a relatively flat course and I've…
  • How quickly do they sell out? I have turbo jam but that became not enough for me a long time ago. I'd love to pick up another program.
