    That is awesome! I sooooooo want to do a mud run because it is so out of my element! As I continue to lose this weight, I think I'm going to do it. There's one coming up in July in my city.

    Way to go--on all of it--The weight loss, the race, the results--awesome job!

    (And thanks for the tips--I'm doing my first race--also a mud run in a week and a half and wouldn't have thought about duct tape and high socks. Where'd you get the cute socks?)

    Your quads look awesome!! Way to go!!

    Funny you mention that. I HATE my quads. They are big and my trouble spot. I posted not long ago about my bulky quads and got all the standard responses - you are a girl and can't have bulky anything, you are fat not bulky, you can't get bulky quads while eating at a deficit, blah blah.

    They are so wrong, I have bulky man quads and hate them. I guess I have to embrace them. You can see them really bad on the last pic where my leg is flexed because I am on my tippy toes, my shoes were muddy and nasty. Ugg I hate my quads but they are rock hard which is better than flab i guess.

    dude they look sexy its the first thing i noticed and thought... doing my first mud run in AUG so happy I got the duct tape trick! lol and knee pads now! =)
