<p style="margin: 0.4em 0px 0.5em; line-height: 19px; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;">Taking place at the end of January, often in freezing winter conditions, the Tough Guy race is staged over a course of between seven and eight miles (about 12 kilometres). It consists of a cross-country run with over 75 Obstacles, Ditched Steeple Chased, Fell, Logged, Muck and &amp; Mush followed by an assault course tougher than any other worldwide. The organizers claim that running the course involves risking barbed wire, cuts, scrapes, burns, dehydration,&nbsp;hypothermia, claustrophobia, electric shocks, sprains, twists, joint dislocation and broken bones.</p> <p style="margin: 0.4em 0px 0.5em; line-height: 19px; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;">Although the course is adjusted each year, its features included a 40-foot crawl through flooded underground tunnels, balancing planks across a fire pit, and a half-mile wade through chest-deep muddy water. Marshals dressed as commandos fire Amphibious Tank Gun blanks and let off thunder flashes and smoke bombs over the heads of competitors as they crawl under a 70-meter section of barbed wire.</p> <p style="margin: 0.4em 0px 0.5em; line-height: 19px; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin: 0.4em 0px 0.5em; line-height: 19px; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;">So please dig deep be generous give anything you can!
