    That's it right there. That or a Warrior Dash, Spartan Race, Tough Mudder, Ruckus Run, Run For Your Lives, Hero Dash, etc. etc.

    Most fun a person can have.
    agree
    Double agree! :laugh:

    Ran the Run For Your Lives 5K in May and it was a ridiculous amount of fun!

    Whoah, this is 20 minutes from my house. Too bad I'll be at school in New York while this is happening.

    Warrior dash was really fun! I'm trying the Color Run this year too, which looks like it'll make some awesome photos.

    There's also the Goruck Challenge (Google "Goruck challenge" to find one near you), which someone I know did recently. Also, in Columbia, SC this October, there is the USMC Mud Run, which looks like a lot of fun http://usmcmudrun.org/index.html. I'm thinking about doing that one, although Columbia is about an hour and a half from me, but there are Marines helping you through the course. That in itself may be worth the drive :wink:

    I am signed up for the Diva Dash which is on September 8th and going to sign up for the Tuff Scrambler (which i think is just a local thing) which is in October. :D

    Any good tips for getting prepared for such a race?

    another fun one is The Color Run!

    go to thecolorrun.com for details and locations

    This looks like entirely too much fun! It's in my area tomorrow, but I have prior plans. Sad panda!

    At least I have something to look forward to next year!

    My 14 year old son and a couple friends did the "Run For Your Lives" Zombie 5K earlier this month. They had so much fun. I just watched though...
