@mgaritty We did Sat with the wind blowing 40 mph, and jumping in ice water, the temp was in the low 40's, for 11 miles and 25 obstacles that were much more real. These northern Cal folks had a cake walk- none of them were even muddy! Sign up for Carolina in Oct.
we signed up already, registered our birthdays and everything. If the site or people running tough mudder had a problem with this, they would have said so in the regeistration
I really want to do the one in Phoenix, but its ten days before I ship out for Basic Training.... anyone military have an opinion on whether or not this is a good idea so close to my ship date
Do you got to form a team for these challenges? Is there minimum and maximum number for a team or d you get assigned to one if your not in a group or don't have a large enough group?
@Xilstealth FYI: I created a Tough Mudder Community on Facebook you might be interested in connecting with others and share your experiences there also.
I just did the tough mudder Norcal in squaw. By far the toughest mudder ever. . Signed up when it was 10 miles Received email before saying it was bumped to 11 miles Got to squaw and new map said it was 12 miles Ran the course with distance tracker to find it was 13 miles . 24 obstacles: -2 of which were berlin walls -2 log carries on loose rock -chernobyl jacuzzi contained nothing but 40% water 60% ice -some almost drowned on walk the plank unable to swim in 40 degree water. -many rolled ankles
@macbeasty I'm still needing to do an official Tough Mudder. I was at the Central Texas run that was rained out, but we still got to do a 6 mile version. I still have scars from it, and the whole way it was pure mud that would rip off your shoes, so me and my friend ran it barefoot from half a mile in.
@macbeasty The ice tub is whats psyching me out!! I lost my cousin who was 15 he fell threw the ice in the winter, my father fell thew the ice but he made it out alive, my dads friend got in an a car accident and the car went in the ice and both people passed away. I really want to do the course and im willing to face my fears but I pray I wont be emotional about it at the event.. I went skydiving, and after that I was thinking what can be cooler the skydiving and I think this is.
Gotta admit. I thought the obstacles would be a bit more hardcore. I can do 50 pullups without kipping so somehow I think climbing over bus with a cargo net will be beyond easy. Maybe I wasted my $150.
@aaaMitsugi Same here. Aside from the 50 pullups (due to my pansy arms), I could go do the rest right now, and I'm not all that strong. There was a different event, I've forgotten the name, that seemed much harder than this.
@obankobi Actually, pullups use your back muscles. But still, I signed up for the the Tampa event. Flat Florida is probably going to make this event a cake walk.
@aaaMitsugi Ah, okay, my pansy back then. :p Even if it's easier than you'd like it, remember to have fun! It's a great excuse to mess around and have fun.
im doing one in Oct. in Va. What was the pull-up obstacle all about. Did you have to do so many before you could go one? or just do as many as you could? Do you get DQ'd if you can't complete all of them? The website says 78% complete the tough mudder. Does the 22% just quit or are they DQ'd? Just wondering cause this is my first one
@ta77w The pull ups aren't actually an obstacle during the course. They are from a post-race challenge sponsored by the army to see who can do the most pull ups. I think the people who don't make it quit, but it really depends on the course for the % that do that.
that was a fun run to do. I am also doing the southern california coming up in 2 weeks (may 28,2011) its going to be longer and harder but just as rewarding when its completed!
Awesome! You doing Socal #2 or Norcal?
