Just finished my trifecta for 2014. Sprint, Super, and the Beast up in Temecula this weekend. Anyone else? How do you guys feel about Spartan Races? Which one is better Spartan Race or Tough Mudder? ( spartan race....duh!!!! )

I find myself to be a spartan racer in perpetual training. I have wanted to do a race for quite some time, before I injured my back I was was training for one in Temecula.

In all honesty from what I know I understand Tough Mudders to be a more difficult race. With those who I know who do them, stating that Spartans are warm-ups for tough mudders.

I enjoy the Spartan races and was going to run this weekend in Temecula but injuries kept me from doing it. Kind of glad I didn't with the heat and the way they shortened the race yesterday and cancelled today's.

My unit fields teams for both spartan and tough mudders. My base even hosts our own mud run every year.

I am not personally a team member, but my troop leads the team.
