Running 9runrun the next week - so i am interested as well as a final long(ish) run.

Well written report - it really sounds like a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing.

Nice Report - sounds like it was a blast.

Great pics and report. This race really seemed to outshine the Spartan Race. Congratulations.

Nicely done - on the course and in the beer tent.

I am glad someone ran both of these - nice double report.

Warrior Dash sounds like it was a great time. Congratulations.

Ahh, the Johnny Fever phenomenon.

This might be a very good opportinutiy to make a very bad first impression with some maniacs.

I think people might be getting the wrong idea on how "dangerous" the race was. Participants were warned about any potential dangers in advance. I personally didn't feel like any part of the race or the obstacles were particularly dangerous if approached the right way. You had to take you...

Hmmm.... maybe a leg as final long run before 9runrun?

Depending on the route, it could be a very beautiful run that time of year. And an excellent cause.

Great job. Free pizza and beer? - I'm running the wrong races.

An age group win! well done.

No photos from the organizer's yet but my wife was able to take a few: Before (I am the skinny one) http://i1112.photobucket.com/albums/k489/LeonKomposky/259.jpg Hill climb with tyre http://i1112.photobucket.com/albums/k489/LeonKomposky/264.jpg Back side of slippery wall http://i1112.photobucket.com...

My view of the event is certainly mostly positive. I had a great time. But as HCcd pointed out, my sales pitch was not very good. And I certainly did regonize that this was a dangerous undertaking - I hope everyone that participated did as well. As KDG mentions, there was a lengthy waiver that they ...

That kilt seems to be riding a little high - is that regulation!

Nice run after completing the weekend double. Well done.

There are too many David's on this Forum already .... would you mind if we continue to call you Leon in real life ??

There are too many Davids everywhere! Leon it is.

yeah, I tend to overemphasize the negative.

My coworker's wife's cousin did the Spartan race as well and said he witnessed broken bones

Yes, I saw a heard the broken bones. It was more than a little concerning. And it took a while before they found anyone to help the poor guy.

Sorry for the length of this report but there is a lot to cover. For those who are looking for the short version - it was hot, muddy and fun. For those with a little more time on their hands.... This was the third race in family long weekend and second for myself – Ran the Perth Kilt Run the night b...

All explained. The posted time was gun time and I was actually closer the the guy infront of me that I thought. thanks jgore.

A pretty nice little last minute race! Well done.

There was something odd about the timing. They used the chip-in-bib system. But that wasn’t the odd part. My official time was a full 10 seconds longer than my Garmin. They didn’t post separate chip/gun times. So, I thought maybe it was just gun time - which would be about right as I was a little b...

Thanks Nick and Andy for the picture help.

No, not running as a bandit - LeonKomposky is not a real name - at least not my real name. It is a simpsons character.

Congratulations! Gold medal merited!

Jgore, So, the official time posted was just the chip time? not the gun time? I don't understand, my official time was a full 9 or 10 seconds greater than my Garmin time and I stopped my watch after the banner (which is where I assume the antenna was located). My official time was exactly the same a...
