CrossFit Competitions can be very intense. They often include multiple events and span over several days, too. There are lots of other fun races and competitions out there, many of which I’ve never even heard of until this past year!
The first of these is the Warrior Dash that I snoozed on and missed this past year, but heard from friends that it was an absolute blast. I will not be missing this next year. (August 2011, by the way)
Then there’s another event which looks to be much more intense than the 3.15 mile Warrior Dash:
The Tough Mudder
Information about the race (obtained from the website above):
Course Length: About 7 Miles
Course Completion Time: Estimated 2 hours and 30 minutes
Course Elevation: Beaver Creek Resort has a base elevation of 8,100 feet, and the course itself sees a 1,000ft change in elevation!

So who’s coming with me? I’m registering and think you should, too. The more, the merrier!
