Tough Mudder- Favorite and Least Favorite Obstacle
I'm just curious what everyone who has done a Mudder would choose as their most and least favorite obstacle. I participated in the Buffalo, NY mudder in July and my favorite obstacle was the Funky Monkey- I had pretty much resigned myself to defeat on that one from the get-go, but I managed to make it across! I'm still…

Any recommendations? I'm trying to…

This means two things- my belly has gotten small enough that it's not in the way, and I've gotten strong/ flexible enough to reach my knee to my…

Well hello there, folks!
Hi! I've been tracking for 11 days now and I figure it's time to find myself some motivational people to share the adventure with. I'm a 29 year old woman. I am an avid backpacker, camper and outdoorsie-type person. I race sailboats in the summer months and work out at the gym 3X a week. I love food and art and tattoos (I…
