After having run a fun 8 miles at last week’s Grim Challenge, I’m longing for more.

I can’t quite work out if its my current state of madness or if it is genuinely a good idea. Running 10-12 miles cross-country with ‘dangerous’ obstacles can’t be a good idea, no matter what your mental state :).

www.toughguy.co.uk will give you a better idea of what to expect if you do enter it. My favourite obstacle at the moment is ‘The Behemoth’.

At £80 its not exactly cheap either!
