The British Special Forces-designed obstacle course, Tough Mudder, is no joke. Whether it’s your first or your hundredth time tackling Tough Mudder, one basic fact remains: you are a badass. You’re trudging through mud, sloshing through freezing-cold water and slithering underneath electro-shock wire. By the time you reach the end, you’re a bonafide champion of the extreme. There’s little you feel like you can’t do, and you’re not far off.

If you didn’t have the chance to dive into Tough Mudder Seattle this past weekend, we have you covered. TheAdrenalist was on site with none other than Bear Grylls himself to secure pictures of the toughest participants from beginning to middle to end. Check out what you were missing below. Maybe next time, we’ll be snapping pictures of you dominating the legendary course.
