Tough Mudderfuckers!

Good Day, Ladies and Gents! Very Happy

It's been one hell of a while since I've checked in on my Crossbow Army, Glad to be back for a brief moment.

Here to tell you all about my crazy time while away.

First of all, I almost got married..haha!!! Laughing

And next, I'm on the team for the upcoming "Tough Mudder" event. If you haven't heard of it, her ya go Ladies and Gents... Wink

12 Miles (or 20 Kilometers) of obstacles designed for the military. I used to do SAMBO for a while, so I kinda have an idea of what I signed up for, only it's twice the distance and obstacles we covered at SAMBO. It's gonna be hell, three month to prepare for it. Twisted Evil

So I hope you're all having a good time here and the forum seems to be Legit. Sorry I've missed and will be missing out on your projects as I'll be breaking in my mind and body for the fires of hell. Looking forward to coming back here and see some cool stuff you guys build.

Wish me Luck! Team Jersey - Blood and Guts - Red Army Warriors. Tough Mudderfuckers! 524936

So...Tough Mudder... Did that sh'ait...sitting here..legs still aching and still have mud in my ears...now what?

Pretty cool event. Lots of people...I mean *THOUSANDS*!!! Obstacles were only half the story...there were some amazing *people* there.

Guys with prosthetics running...for a little while ran along side this one tough guy who was missing an arm all together (imagine scaling a wall with just one arm - he did ) and the craziest one of all...think their name was "Dream Team" who had a guy in a wheel chair with them, who they helped through the entire course...

Through the ice bath...

through the mud pits...

across the river...

Under some high voltage macaroni...(got zapped in the jaw - felt like a someone kicked me in the face...she ain't kidding there...that mud tastes great!!! )

I mean...you can go on all day about all the crap you had to go through there...

Slippery stumps...diving under barrels...high jump into some *again* nasty muddy water...pitch black underground tunnel/labyrinth...greasy monkey bars (of course with a nice drop into some nasty swamp water)...more muddy/slippery tunnels to crawl through...walls and ladders...walls and ladders...more mud...more nasty water...and finally the giant quarter pipe to run up (being one of the last obstacles, with legs cramping up...it's no joke if you can still run up that thing)..and finally the *shock therapy* where some got lucky and others got rocked face first into the mud.

MASSIVE EVENT! ...Don't bother looking for me in this pic...use logic ~ I'm at the beer booth, downing my third.

I mean...stop by their Facebook page - they got plenty more photos :

...and look up their stuff on Youtube...plenty of wipe-outs there.

I'll be doing it again next year, so if you're in the Tri-State area and want to give it a try...def give me a buzz ~ We'll go for a beer or something.

Alright...Three days after teh event - Legs still filled with cement.

Ivo - OUT.
