Dumb Mudder Is More Like It
Taylor and some of his friends are competing in what is dubbed the "toughest event on the planet." It's called the Tough Mudder competition. It's a ten mile obstacle course that has you crawling under barbed wire, running through flames, jumping into pits of mud and ice, crawling through long dark tunnels, running up ski slopes while being sprayed with high pressure hoses, running up and down hills carrying logs, swimming under water for a long time... the list of challenges goes on and on. At a recent race, 19 competitiors had to be transported to the hospital. (That's out of 7,500 people though.) They have already been in training and working hard to get in shape. Linda and Sarah are going to go and watch him and be on hand to pray if something goes horribly wrong.
