Warrior Dash UPdate

the incident command center made us a wee bit nervous on our drive in...

free beer at the end.

giant turkey legs for lunch.

Right after this, Meredith said, "I was a debutante."

there was something so surprisingly enjoyable about getting this dirty.

driving home in our viking hats.

We survived! At the very start, giant turkey legs sounded soooo gross (I rarely eat meat). The obstacles were a little more intense than I expected, but I completed all of them! I am still in my 20's, after all. There was one point where I was at the top of a very tall obstacle and got the giggles while Meredith was still hanging from a rope...a very nice man in neon yellow came to her aid and hoisted her over the edge. (I still feel bad about getting the giggles....I tend to get them at very inappropriate moments in life.) I have to say, the jumping over fire part was the most intense challenge for me. I felt like a horse approaching a jump, but I forced myself to overcome fear and leapt with all of my might. Then I crawled through a pit of mud with barbwire. Afterwards, we felt like we accomplished a great feat, ate giant turkey legs (which all of a sudden sounded very tasty), drank beer & let the mud dry on our clothes. I'm so proud of us. It was a very enjoyable Saturday. Thirty, you better watch out...I'm ready & I have a fuzzy viking hat to prove it!
