Warrior Dash

This was my first adventure race. A friend of mine was registered and was unable to do it so we she transferred her bib to my name. So. much. fun! I will be doing another one of these for sure!


before we got dirty...


the race started out with an off road run of about a mile and then the obstacles started after that. We started right in getting dirty on the first obstacle which was a crawl/army crawl on the ground and then got right into some muddy/nasty water pulling ourselves across with a rope.


There was climbing, swimming out to and balancing across buoys, walking and balancing across small boards, jumping over multiple mid size walls (i think that was the obstacle that made me so extremely sore the next day), climbing through an underground tunnel, sliding down metal polls (the one that i had the hardest time mentally doing, it did hurt your hands), making your way over a huge pile of old tires of all sizes, jumping over fire, and last but not least the mud pit! Do you know how hard it is to move in mud? Oh and to keep upright when getting out on the other side, especially when trying to get your sister back for the mud she piled on you?


yep there she was, he boys even caught her doing it red handed...


I was worried about being able to complete some of the obstacles because i didn't know what to expect but they were all very doable. And did i mention fun??
