[QUOTE=XT43;784561]Find the biggest kids playground you can ( I'm sure you already know where it is pervert ) and practice monkey bars and pulling yourself up stuff.

Grip strength / endurance is a must for a few of the harder obstacles.[/QUOTE]

TBH i didnt think the obstacles were that hard at all.

I did no special training other than my standard 4-5 days at gym. No cardio running or the like.

As Burke has said try and increase your core upper body strength like chin ups, dips etc this will help alot for pulling yourself over obstacles.

Mudder was alright but i hate running and there were large gaps between obstacles ~4km..

If you want to do heaps of obstacles theres one called true grit 30 obstacles in 10km. Supposed to be more hard core.

thanks Tino

found a kids park last night, filled with yummy mummies - bonus!
monkey bars are low though, might climb a tree instead

for people starting literally at square one the couch to 5k program is a good way to get started.
