Tough mudder.......

Here we have a before pic of some of the Anderson clan that participated in a recent event called the "Tough Mudder". Tough Mudder events are hardcore 10-12 mile obstacle courses designed by British Special Forces to test your all around strength, stamina, mental grit, and camaraderie. With the most innovative courses, half a million inspiring participants, and more than $3 million raised for the Wounded Warrior Project, Tough Mudder is the premier adventure challenge series in the world.

One of the first obsticals was a ice bath referred to as the "ice Emmna" here's a pic of daddy Dave and uncle joel fresh out of the cold water, notice the duck tape this was done to help prevent chaffing of the nipples. This tape disappeared some were along the course it's unknown where, this may have been for the better being now daddy Dave diddnt have to remove it.

Here's holly coming out of the ice bath, you have to go completely under water to get by an obstical placed inside.

And holly and Kia doing one of the many crawls...this one was bar wire and mud others had electrically charged wires dangling while you scooted on your stomach. Daddy Dave took his fair share of electro-shock therapy there.

A couple of pics of Anderson's defeating one of the last obsticals, it was a slippery half-pike which you had to run up and grab the top, help was greatly appreciated.

Uncle joel...

Aunt holly.....

One of the last obsticals was electrically charged, which you had to run through, here Holly makes quick work of it, uncle Joel got a good jolt but daddy Dave made it through un scathed.

And of course a after pic, the mud was well earned......we all had a blast.......look it up online for more info and videos of past events its truly tough.
