Ive been checking out Tough Mudder lately, it looks super cool and really challenging. I guess theres some other forms of competition just like this and Ive love to go and do one. I guess its coming to Mt Snow later this spring, just figured Id spread the word

We held the first one at Bear Creek in PA last year.  It looked really fun and looked like it sucked at the same time haha.  It's cool to see how big they have gotten and how far they've come in less than a year.  Last year I built most of the course so I couldn't do it but they have a contractor to do it now so I think I might try and sneak in and race.

my friend is doing it, i may sign up with him

we'd both be coming off crew season so we'd be really fit but i'm not sure if training even helps with this...

The 'electro shock therapy' is easily one of the funniest things I have ever witnessed.  There was one woman who got shocked, fell down, shocked again, fell face down in the mud, shocked again when she tried to get up and then passed out in the muck.
