21 Twinkle Toes Walking across a balance beam is tough. Walking
across a balance beam over a freezing lake is
tougher.
Sat down and scooted my happy ass across this one -
no way was I going to risk going back in the water
unless I had to. After completing this, event staff
pushed me into a med tent because I was violently
shaking. This is where I first witnessed another
competitor go into shock.
22 Trench Warfare Dark, cold tunnels burrowing deep into the
ground. Beware, there may a few unfriendlysurprises lurking inside.
Flashbacks hit me just thinking about it. A tired routine
by now: lots of crawling on one's stomach through mud,water, and barbed wire. Some climbing. Fortunately, no
mustard gas.

23 Hangin' Tough Straight from the Tough Mudder playground,
these rings are not quite the ones you remember
from your childhood.
I so rocked this event. While others swam under me
after falling into the icy water, I swung from ring to ring
like Wolf from American Gladiators and made it to the
2nd platform reserved for champions.
24 The Factory Climb up the back of this colossal structure and
then be prepared for the leap of faith.
It's not the fact you have to climb a 20 foot rope that
makes this awful, it's that at the top there's a slide thatgoes straight down, with a black tarp hiding what awaits
you at the bottom. Of course, by now you already know
what the surprise is anyway - another fucking hole full
of freezing water
25 Rubbernecking Grab a tire and head for a lap around the track. This is a lie. It's two tires tied together. One tire would
be fine. Two tires would be normally fine - put an arm
through each one and take off. However, in the 'we're
gonna be dicks and tie'em together version,' you have
to carry both tires tied together around a 1/4 mile track.

26 Tired Yet Better get your knees up and place your feet
carefully or you'll be going down as you traverse
this tire field.
Everyone's done the high knee workout where you
have to run through tires. It becomes more interesting
when the tire types used are random, and alternate
between car, race car, and tractor over 50 yards.
27 Berlin Walls #2 Show team spirit and camaraderie as you work
with other Mudders to get over this series of
walls.
3 more of those goddamn 8 foot walls. Where's David
Hasselhoff when you need him?
28 Bale Bonds Scale this mountainous stack of bales and try not
to tumble down the other side.
This event was legitimately fun. Lots of climbing over
double-stacked round bales. I sprinted through this,
gleefully reliving my childhood. 2 minutes later, the pain
of reality returned...

29 High Steppin' Hurdles aren't that bad when you can get a
running start at each one. Try them in a long
series just mere feet apart.
Not even James Carter could navigate these efficiently.
Once again my long legs win, as I was just tall enough
to swing my legs up and over them the hurdles.
30 The Meat
Locker
Swinging tires. Greased floors. Strobe lights.
Dense fog. Good luck!
More psychological warfare. Heading into a darkened
trailer with no idea what's happening, you're suddenly
hit with strobe lights and fog. Then a tire hits you in the
face. Noticing a second one swinging your direction,you move to dodge it on a waxed floor and fall on your
ass. Stand back up and repeat until you find the exit.
