- Do not touch the barbed wire... it hurts!
- Do not make fun of Greg

- Dress up in a costume if you want, the crazier you look the.....well lets just say people will like you more.
- If you ever feel like you can not get over an obstacle. YELL. Someone will help you. TEAMWORK
- This is not a race, get over an obstacle then make fun of your buddy that just fell flat on his face.
