What a blast that was!
If you're into a lot of mud and adventure, you gotta check out this 3.02 hellish miles of obstacle courses. Below are a few photos we took along the way. Many are really poor quality, but that would be due to the water and mud on the camera lens =0) This dude is a teacher. With a Masters Degree....look what higher education can do to one.
& there goes Fred Flinstone!
After you swam the muddy lake, you had to jump over 3 rows of cars. The wetter they got the trickier!
Next you went over 6 black steel walls and immediately had to go under 6 barbed wire mud pits. It was an over under thing. I seriously looked at that 4th wall and thought no way, I'm already tired...but I did it. I think this is where many got cut up. Lots of bleeding legs at the end of the race.

Getting ready to start!
Ok, so this is totally fuzzy...however, I was running too and we didn't want to stop, so I got an 'action' shot of my husband actually running. My dh NEVER works out. I told my boss that if he dies on the course this weekend, then I'll be cashing in on a nice insurance policy and they shouldn't expect me back at work. J looked at me and said, "Why do you keep telling eveyone I don't work out? I was the high school quarterback, I worked out over 2 hours every single day." One mile into our run, I heard him breathing so I just had to know,
"How's that 1985 workout working for ya babe?"
At some point we had a spider web of bungee cords to slither through. After hearing those cords snap up on some of them, I was glad I wasn't a man.

You're a rock star!
Looks like a blast ---NOT!! Actually, if I was a runner, it really does look fun - except for that fire jumping! You're both warriors in my book!
This is an event that J. and I would LOVE! You guys seriously rock. Seriously. I wish we knew you in person.
