Did a 12 mile run on Wednesday trying to bump up the distance. Decided it was time to start carrying water in a camel pack and getting used to carrying while running like I will on race day. Run went ok but seemed to have a fueling issue late in the run around 11 miles.



To the left is the team I did my first Tough Mudder with. Tough Mudder is a 10-12 mile obstacle course challenge. This one was at Snow Valley and between 6-7,000 ft in altitude. Good fun.

To the right is one of the many climbs that all teams had to do. The view was amazing once you did make it to the top.  Objects ranged from tunnels, to mud crawls, to 20' cliff jump into the lake, monkey bars...etc.

Here is our team running through the final obstacle, electric wires. You get shock really nice by each as you jog through. The camera missed it but my buddy Dan went down pretty good.
