I did Tough Mudder on Saturday and it was really fun. The super steep inclines near the end cramped up my legs. Surprisingly, I did complete all of the obstacles.

We saw one guy who broke 2 bones in 1 leg at the mud mile being carried away in a stetcher.

Spartan Race was only 5km, but it felt a lot harder. I felt as if I got the crap beaten out of me, especially since it was in the wet. Wet monkey bars (which is really just a scaffold ladder laying down ontop of more metal scaffold) at Spartan were SO much harder than the real "engineered" ones at TM. I also got a lot more scraped and bruised at Spartan than TM.

Overall I enjoyed both of them.

TM was nice because we got a cool Under Armor shirt. (I don't really care for the headband)
Spartan was nice because we got a Medal. (Cool t-shirt design, but it's just ordinary cotton) <---Also photos showed up within a day or two online, have yet to see any TM pictures.
