I watched a couple of videos and was surprised at how many people were shuffling along to the next obstacle. I don't mind the heights, but swimming in mud might kill me.

My only problem was getting over my disdain for heights on a couple of the climbing and jumping obstacles. It was otherwise a lot of fun, and a good portion of the people take their sweet ass time walking from obstacle to obstacle, which I thought was rather lame. The electricity at the end is no joke, however. Some guys took a lot of voltage right to the face while running thru the obstacle, and face-planted real hard. If they have that at the end, just go thru easy and protect your face with your forearms. And if Urban Mudder is anything like Tough Mudder, start doing pull ups now.

I'm sure you'll have a great time and you might be the team to beat. How many people are on a team? Jumping across buildings seems scary, but I guess that's the point. You might be upgrading your status to "former hardcore poser."The Emerging Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09326865074297618379noreply@blogger.com
