Mudderdays



Well, I'm finished with the last of my events for the year. The Tough Mudder was pretty hard but also incredibly fun. My friend and I did this together and I am very proud of and impressed with myself and with him. We didn't get to train much but we made it through every obstacle and worked together really well. Most of the obstacles required everyone to work together to get through, and it was impressive how everyone worked as a 1600-person team. Mentally, the worst obstacle were the electrode-based ones, but the physically worst one was the ice bath. It was a FANTASTIC day for the event, and I'm very happy that we did it. I don't know if I'd do it again, but ask me next year.

Something the hype-man said at the start of the race resounded with us both. 'Every week, do something you've never done before. Make the most of life.'
