So remember back in January when I announced that I was going to get in shape to run the Warrior Dash that I had signed up for? Well….I did follow through with the actual event, but no real training leading up to it like I had originally planned. But I ran/walked it, and I had a blast! We did this on May 1st so this post is a little overdue. But I wanted to document this event, so here’s a glimp of this crazy, one-of-kind day.
SISTER WARRIORS! Jill (24), Kelly (26), Lisa (31) and me (34). I felt the need to put ages because my sisters look so hot, don’tcha ya think?
My get-up close-up…”Mud Mama”, and some things that define me as a Mama. :)
The diaper was almost the only item that was still there by the end of the race. And it was bloated and gigantic. And did I mention, HEAVY?
The whole friends/family/friends of friends Warrior gang. Since the event was about 5 miles from my house, we all met at my house to ride there together.
During the event (pics courtesy of Brightroom Photography). We really did slide down a mud slide, climb a cargo net, swim in a NASTY pond (which I tee-teed in by the way) and jump over fire. Hillary, Jill’s college bestie, is with me in the pics. Hillary, my sis-in-law, Charity, and Christopher and I all pretty much “ran” together – bringing up the tail end…BUT not dead last! We did get lapped by some of the runners from the next heat though!
Did you see it?! I crossed the finish line!!! Woo-hoo!!!
After pics…
That Polly Pocket had one heck of a time!
It was such a blast! I recommend a mud run to anyone – in shape or not! I can’t wait to do another one.
Change of subject…same weekend Miss C turned five months old. REALLY?! Where does the time go?
Here’s a clean pic to end my post. I recently snapped this of my sweet girls. Love them!

Wow! That action shot of you jumping over the fire is really cool!
