Tough Mudder 2011

[sabrinamari]

On Saturday, Michael is doing his first Tough Mudder Run.

It's not exactly a run. It's an obstacle course.

The course map, with obstacles, is right here: http://toughmudder.com/events/tri-state-2011/tri-state-2011-course-map/

I'm going with him to offer support and carry him home.

He is a crazy man.

I love him anyway.

Go for it, Michael! I'll be thinking of you!

Thank you, honey. All good energy embraced.

Wow, he wins.

[sabrinamari.livejournal.com]

I think so.

Holy shit! You're going to need a lot of ice, heat packs, muscle relaxants, snuggles, and possibly a team of surgeons on hand.

I'm making a kit up to take with me. All medical advice and support are welcome (hint).

And extra water bottles ! To pour over his head and get the mud out of his eyes.

Don't forget blankets, proteins, sugars, and wipes to clean off some of that mud!

Checked with my zombie-prepping friends (hopefully Michael will not come back a zombie, but if you prep for one scenario, you tend to prep for others) and we have come up with the following: lots of water and electrolytes, anti-inflammatories, ice packs, the big roll of bandages, at least two types of antiseptics, protein/carb loaded snacks, one or two small towels. Possibly splints and painkillers but on the uh-oh occasion they are necessary, there should be medical teams there.

Wow! Go Michael!

Holy. Wow. Best of luck to him to survive intact, in any time trial! If anyone can do it, he can!

Go, Michael! You're a better man than I! LOL
