Tough Guy 2009
Discussion
Well the time has come.
After months of training - mainly consisting of carb loading and not much running, my rather rash thought of entering this event has become a reality.
For any of you who are not familiar with the event have a gander at www.toughguy.co.uk
Granted, it sounds like a gay porn web site, and to be honest I wish it was!
So, I'm packed and ready to hit the road ready to brave freezing cold water, exhaustion and severe cramp
Are there any other PH's entered for this years event?

get out in one of the early groups or it will take you hours.
Most of that time will be spent waiting on the obstacles freezing your tits off
I did this about 10 years ago, before we set off they had to smash the ice on all the water obstacles Most of that time will be spent waiting on the obstacles freezing your tits off
so spent plenty of time freezing my tits off.Couldn't hold a cup of hot chocolate in the end, spilt it all I was shaking with cold that much.
They add obstacles each year. In 2007 I got hyperthermia (along with 600 others), but loved the event. You stand for long times at the obstacles unless you are very quick.
My tips:
Take a swimming hat and a normal hat.. both pay dividends
Take some good gloves or buy them when you get there... and tape them on.. lose a glove and it's tough on the ropes.
Prepare to be very cold for 2-3 hours unless you are quick.
Have fun, it's a brilliant event
