Commenter Matthew Root, 63 and Spartan Sprinter
Matthew writes, "Not as grueling as the TV version - I fell off a couple of the harder obstacles like getting across a 15 ft. vertical wall with only little handholds (which meant I had to do 30 burpees). I made all but a couple obstacles. At 63, there are some of those I will never be able to do. We did it it as a team of six, so waited for the slower members and helped each other over the 8 ft. walls, except my son who could get over the walls on his own. Lots of mud and water, as this photo shows."
