I’m on the 1-month countdown to Tough Mudder. I have obviously been very focused on training, but now starting to shift my focus on getting there & gear!
Flights are booked.
Vacation condo is booked.
Now what do I wear? This is a very important question. Your gear of choice needs to: handle mud, dry easily, be comfortable, and be trashed. Those are some pretty interesting requirements. I’ve landed on a few things:
-
- Last year’s trail shoes – wore all last summer, last winter, and this spring. Ready to be trashed @ Tough Mudder!
-
- NB 110 Trail Runners – they’re ordered, should arrive any day now. I am not wearing these for Tough Mudder, because I’d like to use them again.
-
- Super Grippy Gloves – from Mark’s WorkWearhouse
-
- I’ve opted to carry a pack to for extra hydration and fuel.
I still need a shirt and a pair of shorts that dry fast, are comfortable, and i don’t mind being trashed. Does that exist?
