🏋️‍♂️ Training & Preparation

A comprehensive training plan helps ensure you’re ready for race day:

1. Understand the course—expect 5–7 miles (or 3+ for Blitz) with a mix of strength, endurance and mud

   2. Strength & grip—focus on upper body (pull-ups, rope climbs), core (planks, leg raises), lower body (squats, lunges).

   
   

   3. Endurance—long trail runs (6–8 miles) plus interval/hill training to mimic course terrain

   
   

   4. Obstacle skill work—include dead hangs, farmer’s carries, box jumps, balance drills.

   
   

   5. Mobility & recovery—dynamic stretching, foam rolling, and yoga to stay limber

   
   

   6. Mental preparation—visualization, reframing fatigue, segment-by-segment goal setting.

   
   

Sample 12-week plan included in training guides—but tailored to your current fitness: alternate strength, runs, and recovery days.
