Do you have any advice for a first timer?

Have you ran the World’s Toughest Mudder before?
- Yes a ran Worlds Toughest Mudder last year in Atmore Alabama was an amazing event I managed 50 miles.
Any advice to a first timer?
- It’s a long game and the race doesn’t start till midnight so go easy early on. The night is when you going to need to dig deep and keep moving , stay out of the pits , give yourself a set time and don’t go over it.
