Warrior Dash

A long while back, in the summer, Jordan and I signed up to race in the annual Warrior Dash with some friends. When signing up I thought "Oh yeah, I have enough time to start running to prepare," since I am so NOT a runner. I don't think it is in my blood actually. Anyways days,weeks, and months go by without being able to go to the gym for one reason or another...many of them being a huge procrastinator. So the day arrives, November 20, and I am really not worried about it, there are obstacles in between the running and it's only a 5k, right? Suuure. Jordan and I get all dressed up the same, since you are supposed to look a little crazy doing this and I did at least with my crazy hair...again, what was I thinking? :) So we meet up with our friends and the count down began, we were off! Jordan was a great sport he stuck by my side the whole way. Did we run the whole time? Nope not even going to lie, we ran a little bit here and there but the obstacles were awesome! I wish there were more. It was so much fun. I don't know if I would do it again, maybe if I really tried to train before hand, but it was alot of fun doing it with Jordan. Here we are in action!

After the fire jump the last obstacle was to crawl under barb wire in mud. Jordan decided to please the crowd by getting a running start and slip 'n' slide through the mud!
