THE VENUE
“Belvoir” might mean “Beautiful View” in French, but don’t let that lull you into a false sense of security. You’ll start with a deceptively gentle climb through the woods, before bursting out into open pastures, where you might encounter a charming little water feature (or two). From there, it’s straight into the infamous “Hills of Belvoir,” because what’s a Tough Mudder without a proper leg-burning, soul-testing ascent?
At the top, you’ll be rewarded with a stunning view of the castle and pit area (that’s if your eyes aren’t too full of sweat and regret to appreciate it of course). Then, it’s a fast and furious descent to the finish line… before heading straight back out for another lap, obviously.
The current elevation sits at a modest 200m per lap, but with 100 days to go, there’s plenty of time to make it worse. Hold tight.
TOP-TIER TOUGH
World’s Toughest Mudder is the most extreme, imposing, pulse-pounding, heart-stopping 24-hour obstacle course challenge on the planet.


WHAT YOU EARN
(IF YOU CROSS THE FINISH LINE)

Event Bib
Every athlete receives participant bib to rock during (and after) the event. A true memento.

This month I intentionally ran (and sometimes walked) 60.45 miles.
Last month, I only ran/walked 42.8 miles, so this feels like a huge accomplishment and trackable progress 🥳
I wonder how many miles May will bring!

does anyone else wear two separate watches for different parts of the day? No? Just me? 🙋🏻♀️
I wear my Apple Watch to sleep (I love its silent alarm) and to work and then I change into my COROS to work out.
⌚️⏱️
I have a daily goal of walking/running at least 10,000 steps, so at the end of the night I add the steps from each watch together 😂

It started with the text Friday night. She drove from Annapolis to my house and arrived at 8 PM. Friends picked her up and shuttled her to northern New Jersey. At 10:15 PM she was running on the trail. It’s hard enough to walk in the dark and find your way along the trail. Around 4 o’clock I got a message. I’m about a half an hour away. So I had to hustle to see if I could try to meet her and get a picture of her crossing the state line. Didn’t quite work out. I started videoing from the Water Gap side of the line(edited most of it )and I could see her at the far end of the bridge running towards the center. Shattered the record. 72 miles, 18 hours, 32 minutes, 30 seconds.
When I used to build #worldstoughestmudder courses, nobody did 100 miles in 24 hours. Megs achievement equals that. 🙂#at #atthruhike #visitdwg #appalachiantrail #martysyellowhouse #dwgtrailrunwalk #contactmarthy58442 trailrunnermag

-1/2 cup of oat milk (I buy whatever is on-sale)
-1 tablespoon of capemaypeanutbutter organic peanut butter

A lot of my friends and family members don’t know I’m conquering WTM in just a few short months. I think I’m afraid of not reaching my goals, so the less people who know the better? 🤷🏻♀️
✨
Today I was getting a facial (something I rarely do) and the aesthetician asked me if I had any summer plans, so I told her about this “24 hour Tough Mudder that I’m running in the UK”. She was so excited for me and just hyped me up, she believed in my goals and my determination, she was so supportive and told me to follow her on instagram so she can follow along on my 24 hour WTM journey.
✨
So maybe I need to tell more people? Maybe I need to have people I love believe in my goals, even if it seems like a crazy one day adventure.

Drum roll….. After a LOT of uncertainty about where I am physically this year, I’m excited to say: We’re heading back to World’s Toughest Mudder!!
This year, not only has it been moved up to June but it’s also being held, for the first time, in the UK. I can’t wait to see what toughmudder and toughmuddereurope has in store for us this year 😬😬 I also can’t wait for the blood sweat and (guaranteed) tears, in equal doses to the laughter, fun, community and pure love for this race 🩵

I`ve never done a toughmuddereurope before...
But my god, I can`t wait to do another!
Yesterday was the most fun I`ve ever had at a race - the course, the obstacles, the people, the AMAZING volunteers, samhall_ocrosteo and kimh_pt, the support, helz_paps and our boys running over to give us sweets on almost every lap, cuddles from spartangaz at the finish line - everything was just incredible.
If you`ve never done one before, come take on the 5k (or 15!) with me at Badminton on August 16th - I promise you`ll have a blast!
Oh, and we unlocked Contender Status for #worldstoughestmudder next month 😏🙌🏻☝🏻

What can I say about this weekend...
Henley and it`s horrible hills, extremely hot weather and TM upping the difficulty on obstacles by remixing a few classics.
I had one aim in the 12 hours, hit 50km and achieve Contender status for World`s Toughest Mudder. That would be 3 full laps of the course and a little bit more.
10 hours 58 minutes and 70,000 steps later I signed off by hitting 51.67km (32.68 miles).
It was brutal, painful and a huge amount of fun. You`ll never better the togetherness and support seen on a Mudder course.
Now to rest for a few days then prepare for World`s in July and a 50 mile target 💪

Maybe I’ve been living in denial. Or maybe I just don’t want to accept reality. But with World’s Toughest Mudder coming up next month, I have to face it, I don’t think it’s in the cards for me… 😭😭
I’ve been really trying! Recovery from WTM 2024 was rough. With such a quick turnaround from November, I rushed the Jersey Ultra in hopes to be ready for WTM 25 and with the ankle sprain, I think I screwed my hope for going to the UK.
I don’t want to rush my ankle recovery. I reallllllllyyyyyyy want to run the Killington Ultra in September. June is just too early {for me} to be ready for a championship race after the last championship was in November. The joy I have at World’s Toughest Mudder sadly does not outweigh my desire to put in serious training and racing efforts this season.
Hopefully toughmudder will consider better timing for World’s Toughest Mudder 2026. I’ve earned my Elite Contender status and I hope that I can return to the mud and don that black bib. But for now, Killington is still the goal.
I promise, I’ll be back World’s Toughest Mudder. I’m not done with you yet.

🏅 Medal Monday 2025 🙌 First Post of the Year!
5 mile morning run completed ✅
It’s been a hectic start to the year. Here are a few highlights:
✨ Kicked things off under the aurora on New Year’s Day
📉📈 Mileage has had its ups and downs. I’m not quite where I hoped to be, but the base is solid and the mindset is going strong.
🌄 Took on 40km at Tough Mudder the other weekend. Plenty of vert and sunshine.
All of this is building towards World’s Toughest Mudder next month, a 24-hour obstacle course race, and it’s coming to the UK for the first time 🙌
Life doesn’t always follow the perfect plan. But progress isn’t linear. I’m showing up, adapting, and still chasing the goal of completing the Tough Mudder Holy Grail. 1/3 of the events completed so far.
Let’s see what the rest of 2025 has in store 💪

#WorldsToughestMudder 19 days! 🤯
What I did last weekend
I guess some of you already heard of the Goggins 🏃🏼♀️ challenge: 4x4x48
👉 4 Miles every 4 hours in 48 hours
I did a similar thing.
For saturday a 50k run was planned but I decided to Split the distance and ended up running 7.15k every 4 hours over 24 hours
And yes... this also meint running in the middle of the night 😴
I started my first one at 7:15am and the second at 11:15am. Both with a nice <6:00/k pace in Zone 2.
The run at 15:15 I combined with a #deadlydozen Fit Test (so this run took more time - less time to recover 😶)
19:15 and 23:15 already a bit slower in Zone 2. But mentally no problem as I stood awake.
The last two at 3:15 and 7:15 were tougher bc I went to sleep. I definitly rather run into the night without breaks 😅 this is why I never could do a Team realy.
Btw pace feels different at night.
It was Funny bc lots of people were walking home from parties between 3 and 4 am 😆 a few years ago I did the same...
I nearly skipped the 7:15 run on sunday morning bc just shortly before I wanted to run a thunderstorm started ⛈️
But I did it 🥳 legs felt fine, I was a bit tired. Great mental training. I will be ready for #WTM2025 🔥

Everyone’s chasing comfort.
Warmth. Ease. Control.
But the truth? Comfort is the enemy of true resilience.
24-hour OCR races taught me that.
You won’t feel good the whole time.
You’ll be cold. Hungry. Sleep-deprived. Exhausted. In pain.
And the only way out… is forwards. Through. To overcome.
But something changes when you learn to sit with that discomfort.
To stop flinching every time things get hard.
To move anyway. To take one more step forwards.
That same skill shows up in everyday life.
Because the truth is, a lot of the pain we feel isn’t physical —
It’s the mental stuff. The overwhelm. The spirals. The weight.
And if you’ve never practiced sitting in the hard stuff without tapping out…
it can swallow you. Those inner voices will get the better of you.
These races taught me how to ride it out.
How to hold the line when everything screams to stop. When the inner voices tell you that you aren`t capable.
And that’s what real resilience is—
Not strength when things are easy,
But showing up when nothing feels possible,
and doing it anyway. To move forward despite exhaustion. Despite the pain.
Comfort never taught me anything.
But suffering taught me who I was.
If you’re always chasing comfort, maybe you’re running from your own power.

Everyone’s chasing comfort.
Warmth. Ease. Control.
But the truth? Comfort is the enemy of true resilience.
24-hour OCR races taught me that.
You won’t feel good the whole time.
You’ll be cold. Hungry. Sleep-deprived. Exhausted. In pain.
And the only way out… is forwards. Through. To overcome.
But something changes when you learn to sit with that discomfort.
To stop flinching every time things get hard.
To move anyway. To take one more step forwards.
That same skill shows up in everyday life.
Because the truth is, a lot of the pain we feel isn’t physical —
It’s the mental stuff. The overwhelm. The spirals. The weight.
And if you’ve never practiced sitting in the hard stuff without tapping out…
it can swallow you. Those inner voices will get the better of you.
These races taught me how to ride it out.
How to hold the line when everything screams to stop. When the inner voices tell you that you aren`t capable.
And that’s what real resilience is—
Not strength when things are easy,
But showing up when nothing feels possible,
and doing it anyway. To move forward despite exhaustion. Despite the pain.
Comfort never taught me anything.
But suffering taught me who I was.
If you’re always chasing comfort, maybe you’re running from your own power.

3.5 weeks.
I worked so hard to get to this point. I overcame a serious back injury, I fought through injuries from a car accident, I overcame mental struggles in my relationships and life. For the first time in 4 years, I’ll be racing with no back pain, no jaw pain, no shoulder pain, and I’ll be mentally in the best place I have been in a long time. I worked so hard for this moment. I’m proud of me. Regardless of what happens out there at the end of this month. I overcame everything that said I shouldn’t be here. I did this for no one other than myself, to prove that I could, to prove that giving up is never the answer. I won the ultimate battle against myself. I couldn’t be more thankful for the people who were with me during my journey and I couldn’t be more proud of the girl who wanted to throw in the towel but didn’t allow herself to. ❤️

Thinking about the fact that #worldstoughestmudder is overseas this year and I won’t be able to make it, but also reflecting on some of the amazing times I’ve had at toughmudder with some amazing people. Tough Mudder was my very first event, back in May 2011… yeah I’ve been doing this a while 🤣
