danyelleb 386 Posted September 9, 2012 A friend of mine tried to get me to do it! Google it and u will find some videos. Giant party atmosphere- u get horny (a la Viking hat) and a free beer when ur done. It's a 5k with obstacles- jumping over fire, climbing over a wall, mud pit... The obstacles vary per location.

aroundhky 1,174 Posted September 10, 2012 There was a wall (straight up verticle) that you could climb or use the rope. I tried both and it was really difficult due to all of the muddy competitors that had been there before me. The mud made it insanely wet and slippery. But maybe others were fine with it, especially the ones who ran earlier in the day while the wall/rope was dry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessica2008 3 Posted September 10, 2012 The wall is what im most worried about what happens if u cant get up it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mesaucedo 207 Posted September 11, 2012 Isn't that wall supposed to bring the competitors together? They help each other in the videos and say stuff like, "We were strangers and competing against each other but we helped each other over the wall, we became family... blah blah blah" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aroundhky 1,174 Posted September 11, 2012 Yeah, when some got to the top, they straddled it and gave a hand to their friend (or stranger) below. Some still couldn't get over it even with help. I saw a few people just run around it and keep going. But I think they should at least try getting over the wall and not just give up before they start....but that's just me I guess.

esheldon76 50 Posted September 12, 2012 I'm looking at doing this also, the next time it comes to Houston. Can't wait to try it! Gotta get working on my upper body. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brookeco 37 Posted September 12, 2012 A few guys at my job did it on Sunday and they are still not back at work. I'd wait like a year after surgery before trying it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it was very fun and for someone that doesn't like to run like me, that's saying something. Just maybe wear stuff that you are ok with ruining. Most of my clothes washed up pretty well, but it will be wet and muddy. I made sure of it by doing a head first slide (like in baseball) across the finish line.

CaliKat 153 Posted October 30, 2012 I did warrior dash this weekend in NorCal. It was a freakin BLAST! Hands down the funnest 5K I've ever done- worth the $65 entry fee. I HIGHLY reccomend it if you are into fun, crazy costumes and having a fun workout. I had no problem with the obstacles and the ones that were "hard" you could take your time and some peeps helped. If you really couldn't do it, you could just go around. Prepare for mud, mud and mud and tie your shoes really TIGHT! P.s. the attached pic- the t-shirt WAS white and the leggings were light grey- lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
