Muddy Buddy

Cool race that Michelle heard about and thought I would be interested in. We were gonna do the one in Orlando, but it sold out so we did the one in Atlanta. Not sure exactly how long the Atlanta course was, but it was 6-7 miles with 4 obstacles and a mud pit at the end. I started biking so I did 3 legs of biking and two of running while Keith did 3 running and 2 biking. It was a pretty hilly course, and it was rainy so it was a little slicker than normal, but it was a lot of fun. Definitely need to train a little harder if I'm going to do it again though, haha. Obstacles were a balance beam, over-under, 6 foot climbing wall, 15 foot rope mesh with slide, then of course the mud pit at the end. Finished 16th out of 50 teams so overall we were pretty happy with our results. Keith only had to wait for me a little at the very end so I was pretty stoked about that. Definitely would like to look into doing it again some time.
