Tough Mudder 2011 – 10 Mile Run & Obstacle Course #PowerUp

Finally…here are some Tough Mudder pictures.

Seriously, I know they said it was the toughest one-day event on the planet, and I’m always up for a challenge, but 3 miles into it after the second ‘kiss of mud’ challenge, I was kicking myself for even signing up!

The water was ice cold, the challenges were CRAZY, the running was like FOREVER!!

This event was the real deal. We had a great time and best of all WE FINISHED!!! 🙂 Officially TOUGH ENOUGH!

Everyone recites the Tough Mudder Pledge at the start of the event:

As a Tough Mudder, I pledge that…
– I understand that Tough Mudder is not a race but a challenge.
– I put teamwork and camaraderie before my course time.
– I do not whine – kids whine.
– I help my fellow Mudders complete the course.
– I overcome all fears.
