The SnowMudder Competition

Near the end of January 2015 there was much cold weather and snow.  So much snow that Tough Mudder held a contest called SnowMudder.  The idea was for people to make short videos of their cold weather training routines.  Some examples included resistance running through deep powdery snow in shorts and a t-shirt, doing jumping jacks beside snowblowers, and other hypothermia-defying stunts.  When I saw that the prize for best video was airfare, hotel, and entry to the Tough Mudder run in Whistler, I decided to get some footage and teach myself how to edit a video.

I am rather pleased with the result, especially considering that I shot all the footage, taught myself how to use the editing software, and made the video in less than 2 days.


I'd like to quickly thank J.T. Sport for promoting the video on their Facebook page.  The chainsaw and helmet are from their store.
