"Each Rugged Maniac features at least twenty obstacles constructed by an experienced crew of licensed contractors. These aren’t the pop-up kiddie obstacles you’ll see at other races. You’ll climb over walls up to 12’ high, crawl through mud under barbed wire, slide down a 50’ water slide, jump over fire and face many other challenges all while running through a combination of forests, fields, motocross tracks and ski slopes!"
Here are a few pictures starting with getting ready for the race....

Whoa! Awesome race, Paul and Stuart! You definitely are "rugged maniacs". (Wondering what the bathroom looked like after your showers. ;)) Oh, and the cutie pie cheerleaders were pretty awesome, too. :)
Great post Kelly! Thanks for letting us invade your home for the big event! Jill, there were outdoor showers......cold water from a hose:)
Brrr! Well, better to get the mud off BEFORE they walk in the house! Glad you could all be there to cheer them on, Kay!
