2012 Suicide Hill Mud Plunge Had Record Numbers!
I was broadcasting LIVE at the 2nd Annual Suicide Hill Mud Plunge this past Saturday on WFXD and WKQS! It was so much fun that I decided that I will participate in it next year!
Around 1,400 people registered to race in either the A. Lindberg & Sons 5K Competitive Run, the Bell Hospital Fun Run, the Kids 1K Adventure or the CrossFit 906 Kids Run!
From monkey bars and culverts, to log runs and mud pits, the course was even muddier and even more challenging this year!
A new obstacle, the quarter pipe, was one of the most difficult for all competitors! Overall, it was a beautiful day and a lot of fun! After checking out these pictures you’ll want to run in it next year too!
