It is not a race – it is a “challenge” – its a hardcore 10-12 mile obstacle course designed by British Special Forces to test your all around strength, stamina, mental grit, and camaraderie. With the most innovative courses, half a million inspiring participants, and more than $2 million dollars raised for the Wounded Warrior Project, Tough Mudder is the premier adventure challenge series in the world π
I am registered for the Phoenix on Sunday, Jan 15, 2012. It is a little last minute but the flights are cheap and you could get a way with just taking one day off. If not, there is also Toronto August 17, 2012 and If I love it I’ll be sure to do it again. I’m sure it will be loads of fun as a team! Shoot me an email if you think you’d like to join me!!
Nadine
That looks CRAZY fun!!! π
Couldn’t afford or finding the time to go though but wow!! Happy for you!!
Hope to see some videos!! π

This looks crazy FUN! Pheonix not really in the cards for me, unfortunately. Maybe we could do something like this in my backyard this summer? I have a play set with some monkey bars, and a garden hose…
Gabrielle
That fits my budget way more! Count me in π
Marco
Last year they had one in New Hampshire in the spring/summer, i would be up for something closer.
Gabrielle
I’d definitely be up for something closer too π

Here is the first Crossfit video I ever saw (thanks to Sonia at the gym). Seriously, my jaw dropped when I watched it. I must have watched it a hundred times that day. It just so happens to be “Nasty Girls”….and I can’t believe I’m going to do that WOD today! YIPPEEEEEE!
π What an awesome video! Thanks for sharing Lora – I’m pumped!! Krista, if you’re reading, I thought for sure that girl with the white top was you in the beginning π She has springs in her legs just like you!
krista
haha, thanks gabrielle. i was hoping you meant i ‘looked’ like her, which would be awesome, because she’s hot stuff! Nicole has always been my favorite CF gal
Gabrielle
Actually, Krista, I did mean that you look like her! It wasn’t until she started doing her MUs and I saw her face that I knew it wasn’t you for sure π So, I guess that would make you hot stuff too girl!!!

Felt much better doing this workout today than in October. Despite travelling a lot and not having many WOD’s during these dates my results improved quite a bit! For me there has been lots of upside to this lifestyle change. Weight and inches lost (chest, waist, hips, upper legs) during the last 8 weeks have been 23 and 9.5 respectively…
Thanks for the support from the crew this morning, definitely helped me get through much quicker!

On a positive note, it looks like I just got out of dish washing duty for the next week π

Fantastic job on the WOD! MU progressions aren’t anything to feel guilty about. Not easy at all. Thanks for cheering me on at the end…I needed that!
Gabrielle
You did great on this WOD and should definitely not feel guilty doing MU progressions!!! π I’m glad you were able to do them in the WOD! Soon you’ll be doing full muscle ups too π
Heather S
Heather S :
I new when you finished it was a huge PR so congrats and well done!
Last time did scaled and this time thought i would tempt my shoulder with the MUs – felt good throughout though π – I agree with those above: from all the squats lately my legs are toast.
Great job to all those doing so great with their re-dos of FRAN. Congrats!!!

Then I did 1 1 minute handstand hold and 10 wallballs at 10 ft before I caught the ball with my face and nearly gave myself a fat lip lol! Fun times at the gym hehehe!!!!
So happy to have a chance to meet Kevin and welcome Leslie and Christine for their first WODs π
Many of you are working on muscle up progressions now – I see a future bright with muscle ups very soon!!

Great job 6:30 p.m. crew!!

YAY for muscle up progressions! Way to go! Nice work Corinna π

I’m so happy you were able to do this workout with the MU progressions π MUs are in your near future too, I just know it!! Great score on the WOD too – congrats π

Felt great on this WOD, but felt guilty doing MU progressions instead of the scaled version..
Good work Lora and Bender pushing through to the finish..
Fantastic job on the WOD! MU progressions aren’t anything to feel guilty about. Not easy at all. Thanks for cheering me on at the end…I needed that!
You did great on this WOD and should definitely not feel guilty doing MU progressions!!! π I’m glad you were able to do them in the WOD! Soon you’ll be doing full muscle ups too π
Yikes … “knew”
Front Squat (x5)

WOD: “Nasty Girls” with 115#

Last time did scaled and this time thought i would tempt my shoulder with the MUs – felt good throughout though π – I agree with those above: from all the squats lately my legs are toast.
Great job to all those doing so great with their re-dos of FRAN. Congrats!!!
Welcome to Christine as well π
Glad to see your shoulder is healing well and you’re back to doing muscle ups π Good job on the WOD!!

PR of 7:13 from Jan 25 (Did Pullups and Paralletes then)
2 things: definately should have gone more on the HPC, unable to do proper math (170×0.65 =110 ). Where did I get 100#? Then the muscleup progression felt easy. Next time yellow band or maybe Muscle ups? :p
Great job 6:30 crew!
Good job Gabe π Looks like muscleups are in your near future too!!

Used a smaller band for pullups and did ring dips instead of paralette dips, but used 5 lbs less on HPC because my elbow has been acting up a lot lately… My time last time I did this one was 15:02.
Then I did 1 1 minute handstand hold and 10 wallballs at 10 ft before I caught the ball with my face and nearly gave myself a fat lip lol! Fun times at the gym hehehe!!!!
So happy to have a chance to meet Kevin and welcome Leslie and Christine for their first WODs π
Many of you are working on muscle up progressions now – I see a future bright with muscle ups very soon!!
Great push on Fran and the Girls today everyone!!! So many PRs π

Practised Muscle Up Progressions. Thank you so much Gabriellle for showing me this progression! I really got a sense of the head through and follow through!!
WOD: 3 rounds
50 squats
7 muscle up progressions with the band
HPC (95#)
Time: 14:03
Last time my time was 14:18, but I did the pull ups and parallete dips. The muscle up progresssions were tougher than I thought thay were going to be and took more time than I initially thought they would.
Great job 6:30 p.m. crew!!
YAY for muscle up progressions! Way to go! Nice work Corinna π
I’m so happy you were able to do this workout with the MU progressions π MUs are in your near future too, I just know it!! Great score on the WOD too – congrats π

First I was disapointed because I looked in my book before the WOD and I did it in 15:36 back in January with big band and 35# but still… The thing is I didn’t noticed I only did 2 rounds back then. Not so bad after all| π π
Thanks Jo for the push at the end. I finished it! Yay! π

Wow!! Bravo Nath π
“Fun” isn’t the right word, nor is “enjoyed” but I am really glad I did this WOD!
Nasty…yeah that’s the right word.

Biggest achievement was getting 4 double-unders in a row! I am still doing mostly double-single-single-doubles, but I was able to concentrate just enough to get four. I really like the “skill of the week” idea.
Congrats on your DU PR Blake!!
