Committing to exercise continues to be the top New Year’s resolution for Americans, but according to the Wall Street Journal, “people with the noble New Year’s resolution to work out or work out more should mark their calendars: That resolve starts to waver in the third week in January, data shows.” With the first month of 2016 quickly coming to a close, how can you stay on track with your goals?
The best way is by committing to a specific goal and timeline that will keep you motivated. Tough Mudder is a 10+ mile course full of world-class obstacles designed to encourage teamwork and camaraderie, while testing both physical and mental strength.

On this episode of Business, Life, and Coffee, Will Dean the CEO & Founder of Tough Mudder share with you what a Tough Mudder is, what a typical event is like, why an event like Tough Mudder is so beneficial for keeping New Year’s exercise resolutions, and where events will be held in your area.
