Anyone in on this? As medical support, or participant? I may be at the Truckee CA one (as support, not runner/slider/crawler/etc). And NOT as medical.
 
I recently heard of this. Not too enthusiastic about it tryin g it at the moment.
 
I plan on doing it the next time it is near me. I had a lot of friends compete and had tons of fun. There is also The Warrior Run which is very similar
 
I've done medical for regular Mudder and the World's Toughest Mudder. You could not pay me enough to do some of the obstacles.
 
If I could finish the whole course (no way I could do 10-12 miles) I would sign up instantly
 
If you're at the Truckee, CA one you might see me. I was trying to wait until I knew what my work schedule was before I signed up but it doesn't look like I'm going to have that luxury.
 
I may not make it either. I signed up late and can only do the Saturday. Ironically, I will be in Reno for the balloons next weekend and a few days either end with my (by far) better and prettier half!
 
Warrior Dash is an entry level mud run. It's a 5k with easy obstacles. It's a fun way to get your feet wet (or muddy, if you will) in the world of mud runs.

Dawn Patrol is awesome!

I found out what shift I will be on after my FTO period and I wont be able to do the Tough Mudder but I'm going to try and go to Dawn Patrol after I get off work on Sunday morning.
 
I did the VA Tough Mudder last October. I would love to do medical for one, and train for another one!

I have never felt more alive than when I jumped into a dumpster full of ice water and climbed out and ran through some woods. Seriously, never.

It was a lot of fun.

The ad appended to my comment above was not included in my submission, I don't know where it came from.
 
....and now the ad is GONE. OK.........
 
OK going to be there Sat and Sun. look for the bald guy in my avatar but SHAVEN. And NOT running.:cool:
 
My husband and I are doing this when he returns to the States. We're both looking forward to it.
 
OK been there done that.

Amphibious Medics provided care, I only had momentary contact with them as they looked for a participant who apparently walked off.
The booth for the Wounded Warrior Project was a great success, people started coming up with unsolicited cash donations we ended up having to use a couple Corona beer buckets to hold the bills; many folks came up for wristbands and info, and a few wanted sunblock (one of our folks slapped a WWP sticker on his and donated it for them!).

It was like a combination of Burning Man, Doo-Dah Parade, and marathon, all at 7,000 above sea level (yikes). Very good crowd, the Tough Mudder people/Northstar and Wounded Warrior Project are also to be lauded.

Next Mudder is NEXT weekend: Patterson, CA (Calif. Central Valley SE of the San Francisco Bay area). I'll be in Hermosa Beach.:cool:
