Tough Mudder is a 7 1/2 - 12 mile run with obstacles incorporated throughout. The obstacles are meant to get you uncomfortably dirty, uncomfortably wet, uncomfortably hot, and uncomfortable period. It was started in 2010 by a Harvard grad who had the idea while in Harvard Business School.
Linked Charities
Tough Mudder is a for profit event. It has a partnership with the Wounded Warrior Project.
Training Needs
Tough Mudder provides a training guide on their website. A quick look at the training guide to me makes it read like "Get in good shape", aka do some endurance running as well as upper body work, preferably body weight exercises. If I choose Mt. Snow in Vermont, I would advise myself to practice running on large hills.
