T-Minus 9 Days


9. Can we as a team avoid a major setback on the course?


There have been some funny and not so funny setbacks during our first few mudders.  In Pennsylvania we actually lost DC for almost an hour.  He was actually searching for another teammate that we thought we lost on the course.  We eventually found him at an obstacle but lost a lot of time in the process.  The lost mudder footage can be seen below.



Patrick has also documented the injury in Carolina which came within the first mile of the race.  He needed medical attention which set us back but made for a hysterical impromptu scene from the movie Rocky which you can see below.  



Each race brings with it the opportunity to qualify for the World’s Toughest Mudder.  We need to make it through without a major setback in order to qualify in the top 5%.

  1. Fingers crossed that we'll avoid major delays, but I'm bringing a box of butterfly bandages just in case...

    1. Always be prepared and keep your hands in front of your face as you hit the ice!

  2. We need to bring some Cliff bars as well since at least one of us has had his muscles try and devour him from the inside out.

    1. Those fig bars certainly didn't do the trick! I'm loading up on sharkies this time!
