Viva Luchador Training Plan

Ok Team Viva Luchador. .. . get ready for planning and getting down with some serious training.  This will be to prepare our bodies, hearts, minds, and whatever else. 

 

1. December 2013: "Keg Hike and Calf-Burner.  Shawn will plan this and get us on it!!!
2. Jan 2014: "Bare Skin Paint Ball" - will double as part of Aaron's 30th B-Day Extravaganza!  This will partially prepare us for the electroshock obstacles. 
3. Feb 2014: "Frozen Scrotum Tahoe Plunge" Josh to plan and get organized. Prepare us for the Arctic Enema obstacle.  For the Lady Luchadors without scrotums, we are egalitarian solely for the Mudder team.  Come freeze your parts also, and you can even teach the men and have authority over our Mudder experience.  
4. Feb 2014: "6 mile fun run"  Josh to plan this one - may include some stations with wall climbing, log jumping and balance beam walking.  
5. March 2014: "Cow Sh%T Mud Roll"   Come roll in freshly dumped spring cow crap.  In Nacho Libre tradition, rubbing this fresh dew onto one's face only strengthens the mind and soul for the mud.  Extra credit if somebody gets alfalfa kernels in their ears.  
6. April 2014:  TBD
7. May 2014: TBD
8. June 2014: TBD
9. July 2014: TBD

Countdown to Tough Mudder SoCal#1

Just a few more days for Shawn and Josh to train up, mentally prepare, and get the SUV ready for the drive down to So Cal to meet up with Danny, our OK team member.  Who will push themselves and finish with qualifying times for World's Toughest Mudder (WTM)?

Our grand finish celebration will happen at Stone Brewery, the one and only, for dinner drinks and much needed rest and relaxation at the famous Gardens Brew eats.

THE TOUGH MUDDER PHILOSOPHY

The Tough Mudder series was created because there is not an event in America that tests toughness, fitness, strength, stamina and mental grit all in one place and all in one day. Sure, there are a few that will test these things – for thousands of dollars and a week of your life. But in one day in one location? We don’t think so. Other mud runs like the Muddy Buddy series? Forget it – unless you want to run alongside your 60-year-old grandmother. Tough Mudder is a truly exceptional event for truly exceptional people. Fair weather runners should stay at home.

FACT – Marathon running is simply boring. And the only thing more boring than doing a marathon is watching a marathon. Road-running may give you a healthy set of lungs, but will leave you with as much upper body strength as Keira Knightley. At Tough Mudder, we want to test your all-around mettle, not just your ability to run in a straight line, on your own, for hours on end, getting bored out of your mind.
