With the same grit and determination required during tax season, Justin Horr, Staff Accountant at Rodman & Rodman CPAs, a full service tax and accounting firm catering to small and medium-sized companies throughout the greater Boston area, completed the World’s Toughest Mudder® 24-hour race held November 14-15th at Lake Las Vegas, Nevada.
Placing 219 overall among approximately 1280 participants, Horr did well in the Male Division 20-24 year-old, placing 9th and completing 10 laps, 50 miles total in 24 hours, 28 minutes and 4 seconds. He was among 28 male and female contestants from Massachusetts.
Horr, a resident of South Easton, MA and native of Granby, CT, competed alongside his aunt, Nicole Perry of Simsbury, CT, who finished 4th in her age group.
World’s Toughest Mudder is an extreme 24-hour obstacle course challenge where athletes are tested to their physical and mental limits competing for Worlds Toughest Mudder title and prizes, while also fundraising for a charity or cause.
“This race, at this magnitude, required a lot of preparation. You have to be ready to tackle different challenges. The course changes in the middle of the night, and you have to adapt,” explained Horr. “It’s almost as stressful as tax season – which is a marathon, not a sprint – where you have to be mentally prepared.”
Horr will be participating in Tough Mudder New England and Spartan Sprint Race in 2016.
