THE ASSCLOWN AWARD


« on: March 04, 2020, 07:35:22 pm »

Sadly, the Tough Mudder is not coming to my state this year.  They said they hope it will return in 2021.       

I am thinking about another race.  I see ads for them all the time on facebook.  They include Spartan Races and Terrain Races.

Have you ever done a race like this?  What was the experience like?

I've been running OCR since, literally, the beginning of the sport.  I ran the first Spartan race ever (which turned into the first Hurricane Heat because of an actual hurricane).  It depends on what kind of challenge you're looking for.  I generally run a handful of sprints, supers and one beast ever year; add in one stadium.  I haven't done a ultra beast in a long time (getting too old).  I haven't done a hurricane in about five but those are a blast.

Spartan is not Mudder.  While I'm not as active on the Mudder scene, I've done 13 to date.  If you'd like a race which is almost a combo of the "best of both worlds" - Savage Race is your best bet.  They take some of the best ideas from both races and combine them.  I love Savage Race.  If you're looking for something that is a challenge, but still a blast, give Rugged Maniac a shot.  Great race.

Good luck.
