I did another mud run last weekend - the Rugged Maniac down at Paoli Peaks. I completed all obstacles, including the wall and the rings. I was the only one that didn't go "splash" while we were at the rings.  (the rings were VERY wet, muddy, and slick) My buddy that did it with me rolled his ankle, but he's rarin' to do another one next year! Pics for your enjoyment:    |

I went off with the 9:00 group. I love the mud races did the Warrior Dash weekend before. Now time to wait for the Spartan Race next April and some Tough Mudders.

My BIL tried to get me to do one of those.. just doesn't look like my cup of tea though  I'll stick to running the blacktop in front of my house. Ever thought about trying to get on one of the "Wipeout" type shows? |

www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0n-DSyKE9UThis will get you fired up to do one. There is a guy racing with no legs pretty much below the pelvis that does the whole thing on his hands.

My worst nightmare. I absolutely HATE mud! More power to you though! |

Had some friends who did that race ... my wife was wanting to go over and do it but the timing just didnt work out for us to go.
Never done a mud race .... have run a few 5k's and mini marathons but nothing in the mud yet. Looks fun.

We went at 10:15-everything was covered with mud by then. I think I'm going to try and do the Spartan tri-fecta next year (sprint 3+ mi, super 8+ mi, and beast 12+ mi). I'm also looking at the Warrior Dash next year, too. How was it this year? |

Ever thought about trying to get on one of the "Wipeout" type shows? Blacktop is so ... boring  I've never really thought about trying out for a show. I just started doing these last year as a way to stay motivated to stay in shape. |

Always go off early it cost more but I worth it. Rugged and warrior are about the same. Spartan obstacles r harder and if don't make it u have to do burpies. I was 298 last year out of 6200.
