...You know....so you can ACTUALLY survive if need be?
If so is anyone interested in joining me in May for the Spartan Sprint at Fort Carson?
I'm registered for the Sunday event....feel free to PM me if you think you're up to it.
Just know this is nothing like the Warrior Dash or even the Tough Mudder.....

Heya Tim - Is this what you're talking about? http://competition-dynamics.com/24-h...hallenge-2012/
If so that sounds like a damned BLAST!
Sounds damned good! My motto is "The World is my Gym" - I stay away from "dread mills" (especially while traveling) and indoor workouts....NOT that there is anything at all wrong with them! To Each His Own after all. Sledgehammers, tractor tires, logs, large rocks and boulders, sandbags in a seabag, etc (and yes....PLENTY of burpees, pushups and other body weight fun).Quote:

Being that I'm 45 years old I am somewhat proud of myself. I do need to get some access to a nice climbing rope though....It's been a while.
4 days a week at Lifetime (lots of eye candy!). I rock climb, Mountain bike, WW kayak, and do a decent amount of camping too (real camping not with an RV lol)
My gf doesn't like me jogging by the house after an attempted mugging .. I get bronchitis easy so in the winter it's treadmills. Summer time I find a track.
You'll be just fine. Just have her keep an eye on your purse for you when you go out.Quote:

If anyone here hikes Castlewood Canyon then they've most likely seen me run by with my backpack and the hose from my hydration system bouncing off my forehead....or running down the north side trying my best to go as fast as possible and still not roll an ankle (again).Quote:
