Help Get Me To WTM 2016

Donation protected
In May 2014, I made a lifestyle change to be healthier. This came after I fractured a bone in my foot during a 5 mile run/walk in my hometown. The doctor told me that it was because of my weight is why I fractured the bone, my body couldn't handle all the extra weight I was carrying and my health was suffering from it. I was prediabetic, Hashimoto's Disease, high cholesterol, PCOS, and was in and out of the doctors for what seemed like a weekly basis for one thing or another. Now just over a year and a half later, I'm less than half the person I used to be. I've lost in total 185 lbs. I am no longer prediabetic, my Hashimoto's Disease is in remission, and the side affects of PCOS are way way less than they used to be, and I no longer have high cholesterol.

Since loosing weight I also found my love for everything fitness and even teaching others about fitness. I went back to school and gained my Personal Training Certificate. I have become a Trainer now and I also instruct a Bootcamp style workout 5 days a week and absolutely LOVE it!

I ran my first Tough Mudder (TM) in 2014 after loosing 80 lbs and I barely made it thru. I refocused and attempted it again Sept 2015 and sailed thru the course with ease. Nothing gets in my way anymore of the things I want to do physically. I am so happy I've made the choice for a healthier life and I want to push myself even further. I really, really want to do the World's Toughest Mudder (WTM) in 2016 which is held in Las Vegas, NV. It's a Tough Mudder to the extreme. 24 hours of 5 mile circuit with 20-25 obstacles, the goal push yourself to your limits physically and mentally for the 24 hours to see how many miles you can get in. Here is the webiste for more info on the event: https://toughmudder.com/mudder-nation/blog/introducing-2015-worlds-toughest-mudder-presented-cellucor
I
fully believe I can do this and like I said I really really want to do it but I need help funds wise. So this is where I need your help in getting me there! Registration alone is $500, but then you have travel expenses for you and your pit crew that help out during the event, and race prep etc. Unfortunately it all racks up.

Please help me in making my dream a reality and help get me to the World's Toughest Mudder!
