Gearing up for my very first warrior race on 11 May - excited but nervous!

Anybody done the previous two races (or atleast attempted it?)
Would appreciate any tips to get me ready for race day

I did the first 1. Just did the normal 7km 1, not the Black ops In terms of fitness I managed fine without any training cause you get a fair bit of rest doing the obstacles waiting for people and then doing it yourself....Unless you're horribly horribly unfit you should be fine They pretty much keep you covered in mud the entire race so don't wear a baggy shirt, some people don't even bother with a shirt because it does add a bit of weight when it's covered in mud.

Obstacle wise they had a few cool team based 1's like they'll put you in a clay pit with knee deep water and you have to climb out but the clay is ridiculously slippery so you need the team work to push 1 guy out and he needs to help pull the other guys up.

Other than that, it's great fun, enjoy
