Me and a friend are going to sign up to this event on 11 May 2013, at Burghley House. Its a 20 mile obstacle course (supposedly on a par with tough mudder). Is anyone doing this or ever done anything similar?
Doing this with a team of ten..3 not run before...5 done tough mudder and 2 half marathon and 10k runners...cant wait...oh and ages range from 30 to 59 (me)
Im doing it in my running shoes...did Stockton on Tees Water rat race thingy in them and it was fine..not buying special shoes just to get them wet/muddy etc
Looking at the route, I think the off-road shoes will be best. I figure the 20 miles will be challenging enough without needing to worry about my shoes!

Hi,
I'm going, looks like it'll be good!

I'm doing it. Trying to figure out what footwear would be best. Any suggestions?
The website suggests good off road trainers, that's probably be what I'll go for.
