Well, I unexpectedly agreed to do Tough Mudder... thanks David :-/
Would you like to crawl through muddy tunnels and scale 12-foot walls? I'm not sure why this is a good idea, but there's only one way to find out. Here is some general info:
I'd like find help to prepare in the months leading up to this, and recruit a team. If you are good-to-go, that's fine. It will take much training before I'm fit enough. I need to work on upper-body strength, endurance, wall-climbing skills, etc... If you have any ideas about how to practice, send them our way.
This obstacle course is designed to be a challenge, not a race. The motto is 'no mudder left behind'. I read that the average percentage of participants who finish a Tough Mudder challenge is 78%. Our goal is 100%!
There will be an event in the Detroit area on June 29th and 30th, 2013. I've been informed that Sunday is a LOT muddier and tougher to run. Naturally I don't want to run the less-tough/less-muddy version of this event, so I signed up for Sunday morning.

Please add yourself to the waiting list if you're interested in participating. I'll put you on here after you sign up through the Tough Mudder site. We each get a $15 team discount (refunded later) if 21 people sign up.
