Just signed up for Sept. 19, 12:30 wave with my brother and some friends.
I look forward to Beer Sweat Mudding with you sir.
One of my friend’s posted this on FB, and I was thinking about going to the one in NY, but I’m 5’3 130lbs, and only been jogging for 2 months. I think I’d just embarrass myself on this thing.
Going to the October Quarryville,PA when I’m in the lower 48 this winter.
This was an awesome event. Tons of fun. I finished in 37 minutes (yeah, I know it’s slow) and definitely underestimated the uphill part, which accounted for about 2 miles of the 3.25. Someone in my wave finished in 21 minutes, which til the point I left was the fastest time for the event. Other than the fact that they ran out of turkey legs, drinking beer outa the steins and jamming out to the band was awesome. Will definitely do it again next year!

The point is not to race, it’s to have fun. I ran the whole thing wearing a paper mustache taped to my face, a fedora, and a Power Ranger’s plastic sword. Ran it in something like 30 flat, which is more than 10 minutes slower than my actual 5k. It’s not a race, it’s a controlled quasi-riot that ends with beer.
Don’t worry about embarrassing yourself. It’s not like you’re in the Olympics or anything.
Any other feedback on this? My wife and I are trying to round people up for the race in Ohio June 2011.
doing something similar called Tough Mudder in May in Cali at Big Bear. They have it all over the country too: Find a Tough Mudder Event - 2022 & 2023 Dates | Tough Mudder USA
Gregron, and any other So Cal guys, you down?
Did it with my wife and friends last year, great time! Going to do it again this Spring.
If you want to spice it up a little, you might want to consider doing Rebel Race 5k or 15k. It is a really fun mud run with obstacles like a wall climb called the Great Wall of Rebel Race. They have another obstacle called Ninja Turle Tunnels. Its time to relive our childhood- lol. The website is www.rebelrace.com
