In the style of \u003ci\u003eFirst Marathons\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBecoming an Ironman\u003c\/i\u003e, these stories give the subjective experience of participating in the sport, either for the first time, or as a lifestyle. \u003ci\u003eGet Muddy\u003c\/i\u003e is a \"what's-it-like book\" more than a how-to, though there are practical tips aplenty throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOCR is the new series of events for people who have become bored with merely running a marathon, or doing a triathlon, or, say, completing Army boot camp. OCR involves a constantly changing combination of such challenges as: crawling under barbed wire, jumping over fire, spear throw, wall scaling, electric shocks, ice water baths--all while running a course that may be anywhere from three to ten miles, or more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eParticipation numbers for OCR are booming. Having started just a few years ago, Tough Mudder, Spartan Race, and Warrior Dash now see over a million participants per year combined. And new OCR series spring up constantly, like Mudderella (for women only), Civilian Military Combine, Savage Race, and Rugged Maniac.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJust as marathons and 10Ks saw a huge national running boom, we are now at the dawn of a huge OCR boom. \u003ci\u003eGet Muddy\u003c\/i\u003e will appeal to everyone from the mildly curious to the wildly committed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gail Waesche Kislevitz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1621240193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781621240198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Breakaway Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/08\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gail Waesche Kislevitz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47474160861439,"sku":"9781621240198","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_077b56d7-1b66-4270-822f-2785c39d0d18.jpg?v=1762315208","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/get-muddy-gail-waesche-kislevitz-9781621240198","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
