Just an update:

Mud Run was yesterday - what a friggin BLAST!!!!!!!! Seriously an amazing event all around. There were some 2800 runners (3x last year's number). The course was also apparently much tougher. We had a co-ed team of 6, for the 10k military boot camp style course... And it was a killer!!!!! Hottest day we've had so far this year, in BDU's and hiking boots... There were belly crawls through mud under netting, hill climbs & slides, tunnels to swim through, walls to climb, rope swings, nets and tightropes, over/unders (swimming underwater in mud to get under a log, them climb over the next one)... Not to mention a couple miles of mid-calf to knee-deep mud to trudge through... It was aMAzing fun. Great team-building activity, a great fitness challenge, and all in support of a great cause. This event raised over $300,000 for the National MS Society.

I just wanted to thank everyone again for supporting me on this - I raised $325!! And I know they do similar events in other cities, so by all means, if you see it advertised in your area, round up a couple friends and go get muddy!!!
