I ran my first race today with friends, Celeste Knight, Robyn Jenks, Michelle Easton, and Lori Hardman. It was called Toobabalooza and our team was "The Mudders". It was an adventure race consisting of an inflatable obstacle course, a trip up and down the river, running, toob obstacle course, mud obstacle course, more running, swimming in the lake, and finally more running. The catch was that each team member had a toob which you had to hold on to the entire time and all the toobs had to be tied together. Like I said, it was my first race so I didn't know what to expect. I learned one very important lesson: it turns out that I might be mildly, ever-so-slightly, competitive. We had a great time together and luckily Celeste's husband showed up to take pics during the race. The only unfortunate part was that he couldn't get pics where we went through all the fun mud obstacles. Those were our favorite and where our team really shined.
Check out those guns. Oh yeah!
We finished at 1:18:53 and were 4th in our division
I had a great day getting wet and muddy with my fellow "mudders"! Thanks guys!
