Warrior Dash!

173 Days to Race

I’ve been out of touch for the last few days. Last Thursday was supposed to be a rest day but I decided to go ahead and do Friday’s run. I knew I would have to get up really early to run on Friday because I had to leave early to drive to the Dallas area.  I don’t like early runs. Don’t know why, exactly, but I’m always super tired the rest of the day if I do that. I envy those people who say that a morning run energizes them.

I’ve slept since then, but my running log says that I ran just over two miles and managed another negative split.  Evidently nothing interesting happened on that run or I’d remember it, right?

But to the fun stuff. WARRIOR DASH. So. Much. Fun. 3.24 miles of slippery mayhem. Up and over 15 foot walls. Army crawls through mud under barbed wire. Mud pit at end. . .

I’m so glad I participated and can’t wait until the next one.  I’m bruised from head to toe and sore from top to bottom, but that should count as my 3 mile fast run, right?

My sister is on my left in each of these before and after shots. . .
