Tell u what trays a really good time. Took me 49 to do 10k on Greenwich park with no obstacles, sort form the big hill, but I don't think that's really an obstacle. I'm doing a bike ride called hell of the ashdown in Feb. Looks horrible!
Nice one Dazzler. Did Survival yesterday in 59.29 - 13:15 wave (yellow bands). 58.07 is a bloody good time! That first skip absolutely f***ing stank, didn't it?
The smell was rotten. I know I can do it faster but was held back by a friend who had very little training. We were wave 6 (10.15 run) found the queue outside the power station exit very annoying.
The spartan today was impeccably hard, I feel like a fool 10k yesterday 20k today 3-5k tomorrow just to keep the legs loose!
Imagine how bad the stink was 3 hours later then! It was literally like wading waist deep through liquified shit. Doing the Spartan straight after that is impressive. I'm doing a Tough Mudder next year, with a 24 hour London-Paris cycle a month later. I'll be a wreck at the end of that!
I think I could have done it about two minutes quicker overall, had a hold up to let an ambulance through near the power station entrance after the 5K mark and waited about a bloody minute to cross Battersea Park Road. Also lost a trainer in the peanut smuggler, which was NOT fun.

Loved the obstacles.
Went past this on the train today, looked really great.
Well done for completing
Today I have just done a 20km version known only as the Spartan Beast...
Scraped in around the 2hr mark, non stop my legs would not carry me for the last 1/2 mile! Still finished on my feet...

I love these runs!
