Aye... I'm in for it... After doing Toughguy it shouldn't be too bad hopefully!

Aye heard that toughguy is tight alright.  I'm in the 11 am one which one you in?

Rusty Madra

Haven't entered yet but said to a friend I'd do it with him. My lasting memory of Toughguy was climbing out of a frozen lake with ice floating on its surface and crawling into a tunnel not much wider than my shoulders... Only to be repeatedly electrocuted as I climbed through lol! ... Gonna check out the website here and book the time off work. Let u know which one I'm in, one thing I did learn at Toughguy was that these events are often more enjoyable and manageable in small teams... Maybe get an NI-Wild one going. Theres nothing worse than losing a shoe under 4ft of mud only to find your alone and stuck in the mud!

Aye I know what u mean, when I entered I couldn't get any of my mates to do it, they all think I'm mad.  Gonna just fire on and hope for the best!

clairebear

Rusty how did ya get on at mud madness?

clairebear

Me and a friend just entered  the mourne way 10km in June.  I persuaded her with the promise of a country fried chicken after!

LandyLiam

I'm tempted to do the mourne way half marathon, but more likely to try the 10k, would you stretch as far as a KFC Big Daddy box meal ?

Half marathon was talked about but my knee gives my jip after 8/9 miles (my excuse)  I'm a country girl lol. KFC is a city thing. Sounds like a nice wee route from rostrevor,
