The U.S. Army Reserve was a sponsor of the Tough Mudder this year, which meant Reserve Soldiers spotted, motivated and assisted racers at the obstacles. Duffy said he wanted to try the challenge (pushing a weighted sled, five pullups, low crawl, 20 pushups, and pulling the weighted sled back into place), because it looked like fun, and he’s a supporter of the U.S. Army.
