Electroshock Therapy


Sprint through a field of live wires — some carrying as much as 10,000 volts of electric shock. Watch out for hay bales and deep mud, or you will face-plant into some electrifying mud. Some Mudders try to stealthily wind their way through the wires without getting shocked, while others barrel forward to get through as quickly as possible. Either way, you are guaranteed to get zapped with as much as 10,000 volts of electricity and it does NOT tickle. This is typically the last obstacle Mudders must overcome before they cross the finish line.

Re: Obstacle Races

Umm these just look like them is running around in mud just for the heck of it. Kinda like the idea of actually doing a varied obstacle course for more than 5K and not just running in mud just because. However will pass them on to the follow fashion nut boxes in my circle.
