You're going to stop along the way to take pictures? We appreciate the dedication but you really don't have to do that just for us. It's got to be tough enough to run the course without having to stop for pix.
Have fun with the challenges.

I had a blast today, I won't lie. I did not take any pics, but when I get some, I'll post. Awesome time, it was hard, but a lot easier than I expected.
The teamwork with people that you did not know was the best. I helped more than I was helped, but it was super rewarding to hold your hand out to someone and give them that little extra to get over the obstacle. One of the cooler things I have done, I want to do another one.
I'll post some details later
I'm broke off!

Thanks, Top.
Google Tough Mudder, look at the event maps. I will say the ice bath was nuts, chest deep on me and thick ice, two semi trailers next to it full of ice, you had to go back under after you jumped in.
The only obisticle that really broke me off was the hill jump, hills with 7 foot trenches dug in between them, about 30 of them. Two steps and jump...
The electric shock ones change me a little... lol... the first one was a low crawl in ice water, with a car battery hooked up to an electric dog fence... the second one was right near the end, I'll explain it later when I have more time.
AWESOME stuff.

WTG in your completion!!!! My son is signed up for the one here in south Texas on the 27th. He has been out increasing his endurance by running 10 miles 2 times a week. He is stoked about this thing. We are going to Lackland AFB to watch one of his high school buds graduate boot and then we are driving my son to his event. He can't wait.
