So it's finally here, after months of waiting and preparation. After skipping the event last year I vowed to do this event this year. I'm a lot stronger and in better cardio shape than last winter. That said, I would've liked to have hit Tough Mudder on full steam rather than recovering from surgery, which was 4 weeks ago. This course deserves my best and it's only going to get about 70-80%. Nothing I can do about it since I didn't plan on getting a hernia. But hey, I'm just glad to be able to do something like this. I know there's a lot of people out there who would love the chance to but cannot.
I'm anxious about getting to this place which is some 3 hours away. I'm also concerned about the weather, which is supposed to be frigid. I know I'll be fine once I get warm and pumped up but the water submersion is going to be, alarming.
I know my cardio will be good but strength is a question mark. My upper body strength is not what is was 3 months ago so who knows if I'll even be able to finish the event.
But then, adrenaline's a hell of a drug.
