So by the time I'm at the end of the course, there's the Warped Wall, and then there's an agility obstacle after the Warped Wall. And especially with the cerebral palsy in my legs, I'm not very flexible, and when I'm on the course for that long, on all lower body obstacles, my legs get very tired very quickly.
