Getting muddy
After 5 hours of running through electric wires, jumping into huge skips of ice and climbing over 10 foot walls I completed my very first Tough Mudder.
I had been looking to for another physical challenge to do this year after finishing a cycle from London to Paris last year. With this in mind a Tough Mudder seemed to fit the bill perfectly, after all it is a half marathon sprinkled with 26 different individual and team obstacles.
The very last obstacle, well unless you count the stairs the day after.
The day up at Cholmondeley Castle (no I didn’t make the name up and yes it did play it’s part as to why we chose the event) was amazing fun. If you haven’t had a the privilege of joining the #MudderNation yet I would give it a go.
Honestly.
And not just to see the pictures on Instagram, it really was a great day wading through chest high pits of sludge and dragging friends over 10 foot high walls. Like I said it was a huge amount of fun.
Do you believe me?
The face you make when being dropped into freezing ice cold water!
Anyway, this makes it 2 down and 5 to go with this years goals. I do have a few more in the pipeline that I have been working towards which means over the next few months the blog will be getting updated fairly regularly.
