    Good plan! You definitely don't want to wear anything you hope not to ruin. The hardest thing for me would be shoes. I don't have a lot of shoes, particularly of the running variety, and none I'd be willing to get squelchy full of mud and likely ruined!

    hmmmm, good point. I will need to think about this...maybe pick up a less expensive pair and just consider them a single use? I DO have a pair of road running shoes that are about shot - unsure how wise it would be to wear them on a non-paved course though. They hurt my feet on pavement...well, I've time to figure this out. I understand they collect muddy shoes at the event, unsure what they do with them - what CAN be done with them...

    This sounds like something I would love! I've looked at the Tough Mudder stuff, but I could not climb up a wall, and I'd rather not break my back trying!
    Off to research.
    Edit: There's one in Boston next summer. I am going to think about it.
