Tough mudder at Las Vegas

I went to tough mudder at Las Vegas to work as a volunteer worker. The place for tough mudder was pretty far from Las vegas with about 2 and 1/2 hours away from north Las Vegas. I needed to wake up at 2:30am because I had to be at the place 30 minutes earlier then 6am. I got to the place at 5:30am. It was pretty crazy to drive that far toward north which was past by creech AFB (about 40 min away from where I live), I 've never seen creech AFB but I heard a lot about it because one of my friend's husband works there. It was pretty small base with nothing going on around. anyways... I drove to the place which is called beatty. That was little small town with the rest area where the truck driver can rest or RV people can pass by.

This picture is when the one of the manager toured volunteer workers around the Start & Finish point

with andy who is the manager. He's been very very nice to volunteer workers.
He seems like he wants to make sure everyone was safe and not working too much.
And also he's been appreciated the helps from volunteer workers.



Keg Toss!

Tough mudder was overall very nice challenge. Because I was a volunteer worker so I only saw the Start & Finish point. when I saw the people coming at the end, they looked so happy they finished the race which had been pretty challenged physically and probably mentally. I would like to participate shorter race when there's the chance.
