    Supposed to be an intense strength/endurance (mostly the latter) mud run type athletic deal, 7-12 miles with numerous military-style obstacle courses. Doing one with some friends later this year, prepping like crazy for it. Anyone done it before? Curious to hear experiences/if it's really that ridiculous/etc.

    interested in doing it, but im guessing I need to work a bunch on my upper body strength. I have a bit of trouble on monkey bars and the like

    I have some friends that do these things... I'm tempted. But I think I'll die midway through.
