Kalamazoo Jambo Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 My wife's cousin recently did a Tough Mudder in Michigan. He was one of several hundred participants who contracted norovirus at the event. Just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommythejambo Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Not doing it personally, had to have an operation that put paid to any chance of that. Few mates done it last year. Heard that if you're capable of running a few miles comfortably you'll skoosh it, due to the queues for a few of the obstacles being massive.

Jamboelite Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 I was going to go along and cheer on some folk I know who are doing it but it's ?10pp to watch and ?10 for parking! I was hoping that would at least be going to charity but I don't think it is so I'm out. It is dear for that I was thinking though that some of it goes Help for Heroes as far as im aware.

tokyowalnut Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Just looking at it at the moment! The guys I'm doing it with did it last year and they said the AE just knocks the life out of you, it takes a while for your leg muscles to kick start and get going again! It'll be fun, it'll be a well deserved pint at the end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaap's Sigh Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm doing it. Bloody 1300 start time for me though. My upper body strength is poor so I'm a bit worried about it all. Run long distances regularly though. Completed the west Lothian half marathon in 1.45 last weekend so the endurance part shouldn't be a problem hopefully. Good luck!

Der Kaiser Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Please don't wind up Jamboelite. After hearing the news that I would be unable to take part in tough mudder he's been quite upset. The thought of running behind me watching my butt jiggle, mud dripping off my body, the touch of my skin as he pushes me over obstacles, muscles crying out in agony aching for the finish line where we collapse in a heap into each others arms, breathless, dirty, sweating, and then something stirs, something feels right, our eyes meet and neither of us is looking away................................I'd type more but my hands are shaking.
