Boston Spartan Race 2011. So much harder than last year. Involved carrying 5 gallon buckets of gravel up and down a ski hill, straight rope climbs, lots and lots of mud and barbed wire crawling, and, of course, jumping over fire.
The epic-ish video on their main page sums it up nicely.
I think I did pretty well, but a bunch of us appeared to trigger the starting line sensor during our warmup so there may be some math involved to figure out my time. I successfully completed all of the obstacles without penalties except for two (balance log hops, and the spear throw [again!]). Really wiped out right now.
Update: I finished 11th in my heat, 3rd person from my company. Way better than last year.
