Runners! And non-runners! Looking for a muddy, fun, tough ra

Options
Hey everyone, I just have to tell you about this race I ran on Sunday. It's called the Warrior Dash. It's a ~3 mile course with all sorts of obstacles such as climbing over cars, climbing a rope ladder, trudging through a mud pit, hurdling over fire, and crawling under barbed wire. Now if you don't run, but would still like to do it, don't worry, plenty of people walk the whole thing! Don't worry about time with this, it's all about fun. They have races in every region of the country. For signing up you get a t-shirt, a medal, a warrior helmet, and a free beer. It's usually a two-day event and it's so much fun if you are into getting dirty! here is a link!

I have pictures from the day, let me know if you'd like to see them!

    HAHA I did it too last weekend, the Midwest one. I've never been more dirty in my entire life!!! I did think it was a bit too expensive for the event, probably won't do it again. It was a fun one time thing! If you have a pic, sure post it. I don't have any, too muddy to hold the camera.

    I did the Midwest one too! We probably saw each other haha. Considering what you get for the amount, I thought it was pretty good. I've paid just as much to run a half marathon and only get a t-shirt. And for those courses all they have is a port-a-potty and mile markers.

    Host the pictures to tinypic.com and then copy the IMG] and copy it here, but change the IMG to lowercase img.
