I've been trying to do more trail running, but I think the mud/slip factor is going to be crazy at the event. I heard the most common injury at these things are twisted ankles, so watch the ground!

I honestly think the obstacles won't be too challenging, but it's still trail running for almost a half marathon. I only started running in the last few months, so that's my primary concern haha.

I wouldn't be too concerned. These are marketed and aimed at those individuals that finish in the bottom 50% of entrants. These companies know they will get the top half back, but it is the bottom half that needs to enjoy themselves and re-purchase next year.
