Well God damn boy!! that was something ! A real joy to read !
Actually reminds me a lot of an experience I had back in my teem years as a surfer competing in a summer surf Competition in casablanca, I actually gave an entire speech about that story back in 2020 at the SWS club.
I have the feeling that I was there with you in the race, that's the magic how you turn your words to be a real scene and I'm totally mesmerized by your words!
Bravo Barry! You are the winner! What you did was by far more important than a trophy or blue ribbon. We all can learn from your challenge. You didn't quit. You passed along the encouragement you received to others. Great lessons. I believe in competition to bring out the best in myself and I believe in helping others be their best also. It is a win-win.
How old were you exactly, when you did this crazy thing? My son did the Tough Mudder a couple of times and even got cellulitis the first time. Bravo to you.
I almost tuned out while reading the formidable details of your challenge, but I'm glad I kept reading. Your story reminds us of the kind of success that is deeply important - thank you for sharing your win.

Thank you, Ruth.
I also did the Tough Mudder once, a lot of fun!
I was 63 when I competed in the second Spartan Beast that I wrote about.
