Tough Mudder Manchester, Heaton Park - July 2024 - all obstacles.

yeah your feet ni [Music] job I overcome all fears I thank you J your job is done give Round of Applause everybody else bounce it count it 10 m Manchester is based at Heaton Park and is the only city event left in the UK any other tough M venue this one only has a 10K course whilst the others have a 10 m or a 5m version what a way to start an obstacle race Hydrophobia is basically pool of water and you just dunk under the two backups to get to the other side [Music] [Music] Lumberjack is Devious it looks simple enough but actually quite difficult to get [Music] over you can use the supporting pillars to get over you can always always use teamwork to get over as well as you may have seen in other videos I sort of flip over backs [Music] I'm running in the 361 Europe fuan 3 the really light Trail so really good for this sort of running where there's a bit of Woodland some some paper it's the overhang that makes skid marks a little bit more difficult than normal [Music] walls just trust your grip use the ledges uh with your feet and then hang over to push yourself and the momentum over the wall you what can I say the only tip I have is go in be calm and take it easy you can normally weave your head through between each of the wires you might then get stung on your THM or your carves but as long as your head not getting stung that's the main thing pyramid scheme is the epitome of T planner all about teamwork get everyone up and over the obstacle I've done a separate video of this but basically you do need a team you need strong people at the bottom uh someone uh that's a little bit stronger in the middle and then you can push people up to the top once you get a strong person at the top they can then help pull people up um do rotate use other people use teams if you can to get people up and over but it's really simple once you have the technique rotate people at the bottom the shoulders are really going to start hurting as they're taking more and more weight as they're pushing people up quick shout out to bwood uh par athlete and her team they all managed to get B across the 10K course today she has done Infinity before and she's done the longer courses before but well done to the team and to be for completing the 10 K [Music] Manchester L beard one of my least favorite obstacles um get under get under as much as you can if you can like these short Nets people at the front and the back will help their net up and you can get through quite easily otherwise go backwards with your bum first or forwards with your shoulder first um crawl through and it's easy easier to get through that GRE in this one but you can see it's relatively slack normally it's tied down a lot more a lot tighter to you so it's much more difficult to help people across but with the three they're all quite nice to tip is one of very few hanging obstacles at tough M uh use the momentum as the obstacle swings you got to swing with it uh once you get to the door knobs in the middle uh always reach for the second one rather than the first one cuz that allows your first hand onto the the furthest knob and then your leading hand onto the second knob and then you can get across that way really to have a bell though it just makes it satisfying to ring once you're finished bir can out is a crawling obstacle but what makes it much more difficult and challenging is that there's a bag of water that's pushing down out you making it really difficult to craw through this tight space [Applause] [Music] I think most of the water had already leaked out the bags by the time I got to it though [Music] [Music] this is the first time I've done commentary on any of my videos so please do put in the comments whether it's a good thing or a bad thing and also don't forget to like And subscribe to my [Music] channel po D you're supposed to get from the front to the back with just using your arms without the legs um I sort of use the jumping technique some people kind of walk their uh arms across lots of different ways of getting across uh but it is a lot about arm strength and a bit of technique Texas Holding is all about teamwork and the heavier person uh goes more towards the top and the lighter person goes more towards the bottom the closer you both are to the bottom of the base the less it shakes kiss mod what can I say just get low uh if you're smaller uh like me you should be able to roll underneath the bulbed wire but just get low for uh this one in Manchester not so bad it wasn't muddy just grassy it Parx just a such a beautiful place with lots of different characteristics and it's great that you can run through a little bit of Trail uh while still being within a city park definitely more character than London FY park or or Mor that we've had at before sprinkle toes is just a simple balance beam not really much I can say about that however as a bit of teamwork you can hold to one's hand uh to help guide them across the balance beam [Music] too h t one of my favorite obstacles again just use a little bit of momentum uh especially on the pole because that will move side to side so you use your body and move side to side as it's moving to get across the bar that little bit quicker again be nice to have a bell at end [Music] these guys at Hero Wars they spotted me before they watched their Manchester videos uh just to prepare for tough M so hello uh glad you made it on the video and thanks for watching it's always a nice when people just say hi that they've watched the video [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] help someone up and over her Awards because it can be quite a challenging obstacle you sit against the wall you allow the person to stand on your knee and then on your shoulder if necessary for them to get up and over the obstacles mod horn is not for the Fain hearted there's lots and lots of people that find it challenging just because of the sheer height of [Music] it what can I say about arctic Ena one of the signature to M obstacles climb the frame down the tube into the first set of water and then dunk under the tires into the next pit and then out the way to heaven just a vertical cargo net um I suggest being a little bit closer to the side uh that's a little bit tighter around than if you're going to go and ninja roll across it then hold on to one of the horizontal lashes uh roll over and then you got about a 2T drop to the cushion Everest is one of my favorit of M obstacles for two reasons one it's the accomplishment of getting up and over the obstacle and the second thing is the teamwork of helping others accomplish the obstacle too few mistakes that people make about Everest first one is they Sprint from far too far back from the obstacle you need to be at full Sprint once you get onto the gray matting at the bottom don't be sprinting any time before that the second mistake is either they slow down or they jump when they're at the top don't do either of these reach out but just keep running if you're at the top and helping try and grab their arms uh and if you've got more people get someone else to grab the leg just to pull them up sideways page call is probably my least favorite obstacle only because I struggle with the water so here you just have to keep calm keep your face as close to the fence as possible there is enough space between the uh top of the water and the fence for you to be able to breathe the calmer you are the slower you are the less likely the water is going to go over your eyes or into your mouth or into your nose that panic [Music] it's very claustrophobic but don't forget if you do feel uncomfortable you can always push the fence up it will be pushed up no problem the ultimate finisher obstacle Electro shot [Music] the electric wires are probably as powerful as any electric CR that you might have seen out in the countryside doesn't really hurt more a surprise shot anything else link arms hands don't know to think just R ladies you ready 3 2 1 go [Music]
