Ten years ago, I never would’ve guessed that I’d find myself running a 5K race through mud, over wood walls, and across mountains. But like more than 7 million other crazy people every year, I caved and was convinced to run in an obstacle course race… the latest cultural phenomenon.
Alongside Dorrough (the artist behind Ice Cream Paint Job) and the team behind Shower Toga (the ultimate post-race clean up product), I competed in a Spartan Race – the obstacle course race designed to test your abilities up against the very training routine of King Leonidas and his 300 Spartan soldiers… Well, not really. But for us lazy 21st century couch potatoes it’s a fun excuse for getting back into shape.
Even though I knew about the event five months in advance, I didn’t actually do any training. Below is my video journal recap of me Running A Spartan Race With NO Training:
