Obstacle Race Training-1/17/18


Most of the south is enjoying warm sunshine. Great day to go and run. Find a 2.5 mile route and get to it. This is a great workout that incorporates up to 11 obstacles. Most 5k mud runs involve 12 obstacles, equivalent to one every quarter mile. This gets you ready to test your lungs for the run / obstacle / run pattern so familiar to obstacle athletes. Enjoy!
