Poo laced mud - yeah that’s the ticket to being a tough guy/gal!
Tough Mudder Florida is held in cow pastures, so every participant is exposed to, covered in and injests the product of said bovines. I competed in the inaugural TM event in 2011, and when I saw the terrain I told everyone around me to run with their mouths closed. They all thought I was joking. Not really.
Just think of all those great facebook photos you’ll get as you wade through the poo-mud at 30 mins per mile.
I just about spit my coffee out at work HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA

According to that article you better skip bike races in Europe too.
Personally I’d rather race in a pee filled pool than expose myself to e-coli in a muddy ditch.
Oh, a “Tuff Shitter”.
Now, there’s a more appropriate handle for their races!

I didn’t read the article but does that mean PowerAde has started making energy bars now?

Only if its wet out and the race is draft legal.
I thought this fad racing was played out by now…the things people need to come up with to distract them into physical activity never ceases to amaze!
You know, when I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Bolivia, the water systems and toilets we built were intended to free the population of illness caused by the oral-fecal cycle of disease. Big problem in the developing world.
We turn now to Tough Mudder, and athletes voluntarily diving into its feces-laced swim mud, and I realize we are dealing with first world problems.
A buddy of mine got a really bad infection when he scraped his shin on a filthy log at one of the Marine Corps mud runs. The medics scrubbed the wound pretty well, but I guess germs are nature’s way of thinning the herd, including adventurous athletes who think nothing of signing the death waiver placed before them on the registration table.
I do a lot of dumb things, and I do sign the IM waivers like everybody else, but I’ve never been tempted to do a run of mud, color, electricity, or other peril.
