I ended up doing 125 burpees (5 are required). I missed the spear throw, traverse wall, one of the…
  • That's awesome, congrats! I did that race too, on Sunday though. It was COLD but a lot of fun :-) That was my first serious mud race and I'm addicted. I'm trying the Spartan Beast next in August.
