Tough Mudder

Speaking of 2013 goals...
Several of you have mentioned that you have registered or intend to register for the Buffalo Tough Mudder, which isn't actually in Buffalo, it's in Andover, which isn't really anywhere near Buffalo, but I digress....

I can help you train for this! I would like to get the group of you together and outline how I think you should prepare for this event, not only so you get through it, but that you also feel well prepared and don't destroy your body. I happen to have a friend, Sara Fleming who successfully trained a group to do a Tough Mudder this past fall. I also know how Karen Linder trained for hers in 2011. You have to do a lot of running! I know, big surprise!

Let me know if you have registered or are interested and we will meet as a group to discuss the training program! This will also work for Warrior Dash and all of those other obstacle running events.

Since my crooked spine and arthritis don't really allow me to do much running, one of my goals for 2013 is to compete at some sort of Highland Games/Highlander event. I went to a seminar in November and learned the throws and I have made some contacts with local-ish people who do this stuff. It is really, really fun! Once this snow clears I would also like to get a throwing group together. We will all look so awesome in our kilts!
