Are You One Tough Mudder?!?!?!?!?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone.. i was just wondering if there was anyone in the sac, ca area that would like to train for the tough mudder with me.

it will be a great way to kick up your weightloss as well as get mentally and physically in shape.. im tellin you right now that it wont be easy but when you complete the competition you will feel so free of anything that was keeping you down before, because if you can do THIS....YOU CAN DO ANYTHING!!!!!

I am shooting for the Sept 2012 competition in TAHOE.. but im willing to also recognize that i just had surgery and that i don't think i will have built up the stamina needed to compete that early so worse case senario, i start training now and wait till next year FEB to compete in the bay area.

It would be really nice to start up a team and do it together, but i know not everyone has the same level of fitness ability. So if you are interested let me know.. because i am going to start training ASAP!

and for those of you that just want to see the journey i will document it.. pictures and all.. and its gonna be sweat, blood and tears!

I wished I lived near you (and had already had the surgery) as my goal is to do Tough Mudder one year after my surgery. It looks like so much fun and like the experience of a lifetime! Good luck with your training and keep us posted, as I would be interested in knowing what you think of it!

Less i was in the middle of drinkin some Water when i read this and litterally spit it every where i was laughing so hard.. lol girl you are crazy!!! that was too cute.. its intense i know, but its definitely worth while... cuz when you finish the race even if its last place you will have accomplished something that only about 3% of the population could achieve. lol

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
