This isn’t a gimmicky mud run, each obstacle is designed to test your strength, grip, agility, and endurance. You will feel the burn, sometimes you will want to give up. You will suffer through it and you will overcome it and make it to the finish line!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t![\"Chole](\"https:\/\/gritocr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/07\/7505-cholemilikian-1stfemale-claw.jpg\" "\\"Chole")
