Thumbs up Completed Spartan Trifecta

Suns Peak, Beautiful British Colimbia was our destination to conquer the Spartan Beast...turned into a three mountain climb, terrain ate at us, obstacles grinded at us, back spasms, hip popped out, quads burning beautiful scenery made up for the constant mind game body burning desire to finish this Beast...and we did.

Feet are still bleeding, bruises are showing up in places that are tender to the touch and walking is comical when going down stairs.

In shape for this hunting season

Congratulations! So far I've completed the sprint, and that was pretty hard. Lots of respect for you and those who battle through those challenges.

Was all gung-ho to go for it a couple years ago! But I think I've missed my chance! Just happy to be walking again, felt pretty stupid asking my mom to wait up for me in the Wal-Mart last week! But good for You, good job!
