This looks like a lot of fun. Basically, you run a 5k that has some obstacles (walls, mud, fire, etc) and at the end you hang out on the campgrounds and drink beer. plus they have them ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. im signing up for the maryland one... anyone else in?

I did one of these last summer, and will probably do one or two again this year. Loads of fun.

You can't camp at the Maryland one, though.

my friend did one last year and is bugging me to do it

This is definitely not my style, but I went with a friend last fall and took some pictures.












My friend now does even crazier races, half-marathons with ridiculous obstacles. I think he did something called the Tough Mudder recently.
