    I have always wanted to do one. Problem is, the only one in my area is the second week of September. Don't want to risk messing up an ankle/knee and I don't want to miss an elk hunt.

    I have talked about doing one but haven't made it happen. I would like to sometime soon.

    My sister in law did one this past fall in I believe WV. She had a blast.

    We were supposed to put a team together for Austin this year, but my friends suck and all starting backing out when me and another buddy got serious about it.

    I'll do it eventually. Just need to make the time.

    I'd have been all over these 20-30 years ago. Looks like a blast.

    I've done the 5k version, the mudman. it was pretty easy - kind of a joke really since they advertised it for high endurance athletes. I'd love to do the tough mudder

    I'm registered for the event in September in Kansas City. I've never done it but my BIL has and will be joining my team. Shoulder exercises/lifts are a must he said. He also suggested to be able to run 5 miles with a fair amount of ease. I pretty much plan to own it.

    I've never done one, but one of the places i hunt is an off road park that belongs to a friend of mine. They have put on the "spartan race"the past 2 or 3 years. My son helps out with parking and such. This year he might enter.

    A guy at work was putting a team together and asked me a few times. I've heard they are nothing but fun, but I just don't have any interest.
