Under armor is popular. I think target/walmart sells some cheap knock offs. Costco does too. Most of the people that wore the synthetic stuff were the cleanest throughout the event. They were the driest too. The only thing is in some of the crawling obstacles your clothes might snag on the random stones that are everywhere or the barbed wire. Could mess you're clothes up a bit.
I wore a cotton t-shirt and I don't think that thing will ever come clean. It was yellow but after 2 washings it's still brown. I and a lot of other people wore board shorts. The quick drying ones. You can wear compression gear underneath so mud doesn't get in your crotch area.
Trail running shoes are best with wicking socks. Just double knot your laces. Some people tape their shoes but it makes it hard to adjust it if it feels too tight or too loose. The reason being you could lose a shoe when you're walking through the mud.
Gloves can help. The ones I posted earlier in the thread are the most popular. My roommate used park (snowboarding) gloves and they kept his hands dry. Some girls used under armor gloves and they loved them. Take them off and make sure your hands are dry for the funky monkey. I didn't wear gloves and I felt OK but your event will be much colder. Your hands will be dirty when you eat most likely.
JCH13 had a family emergency and may not be able to make it.
Heh I am so gonna get my ass kicked...
the thing I am worried about most is jumping into the freakin water.I am actually dreading it.
I got some compression shirts and legging to wear. What kind of undergarments am I supposed to wear with compression leggings? Cotton is not recce-mended from what I understand.
That sucks about jc13. Hopefully everyone's ok. Anyways I'm psyched and ready for tomorrow.
Are you here yet? Thanks for sending me that hotel deal link. This room is incredible!
Kinda feel like I was hit by a truck this morning.
So when's the next one?!
February in Pheonix. But I might just wait til next year. I still hurt....ow.
I'm really glad you guys were able to make it out - I had a great time. I actually think it's safe to say this is the best weekend I've ever had, ever.
Would anyone be up for coming out in February? Chris and I are thinking about it, and it's only 15 miles from my house.
