Absolutely. Kohler and I were talking about this a few months ago.

[sweetbmxrider]

Good possibility I would go pull a plane, well try at least.

[Blackbirdws6]

Would also be down.

[LS1ow]

in. the tough mudder isnt really my thing, so im complelty down for this !


how much $ ?

[V]

how much $ ?


I dont think theres an entry fee, you just raise money to donate.



I would love to do this event as well as the tough mudder, but not sure if I'll be fully recovered from surgery by then.

juss read on the site its a minimum $1000 donation per team to pull. i think i read it correctly ?

Yup. No entry fee, just raise money for charity. For a team of 20 we need to raise $50 a head.

[V]

yea, a Team minimum donation of 1,000 isnt bad, my friend raised over 300 for his Polar bear plunge, and that was just him, times that by a team 20 people... thats like $6,000.


yea, id still definitely be there to encourage everyone else and tell them how i could have done it better, lol.

[LTb1ow]

Def in, much better than running 9 miles and perfect reason to bulk to 242.

I'd love to pull a plane. South has some seriously big dudes, I think Ron and I could handle it alone.

[LS1ow]

i think wed be better off combinding rather than North Vs. South Vs. Kohler

[BonzoHansen]

i think wed be better off combining rather than North Vs. South Vs. Kohler

Motivation to finally build my sled.:nod:

[WildBillyT]

I don't think you can register yet. When you can I'm going to set one up.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

I'm down if you guys want me and can grab some bigger guys

This is a charity pull so I don't think we are being exclusive. If we were competitive it would be different.

Believe it or not but I've lost over 15lbs in the last 2.5 months from being sick/not being able to go to the gym. And even as of last Tough Mudder, I was down 10 lbs on top of that. I gotta gain my weight back!

[HardcoreZ28]

I'd be in for this

[CHRIS67]

I'm down with it.
