In case you’ve been living under a rock for the last year or so, Tough Mudder events are cross-country challenges with obstacles littering the course ranging from monkey bars to ice baths, balance beams to electric shocks. The idea is to enter as a team with a bunch of mates and not to leave anyone behind. Your team doesn’t finish until every one is across the line, which promotes a great sense of camaraderie and a friendly atmosphere all round. Most of us went thinking Tough Mudder would be more of an ordeal than a fun activity, but were happy to be proved wrong.
Though some of MF had entered previous Tough Mudder events, this is our first team entry. We had an amazing time as you can see in the video, and we’ll definitely be doing it again. Though there are no official timings we clocked in at a what we’ve been lead to believe is a respectable 2hrs19mins, meaning our sights are firmly set on a sub 2hr time next year. All we need to do now is figure out some way of electric shock proofing our entire bodies.
