I write this post as a survivor! My roommate Kellie, former co-worker Kerry and I recently conquered the Camp Pendleton mud run and it was quite the experience! This was my third mud run so far and I definitely feel the best about my performance this time around. Not as many crazy obstacles requiring more than my T-rex arms can handle (i.e. Volkslauf) and unlike my last failed attempt, the weather was perfect! My recent “love” for hill workouts really paid off. I’m already (kind of) looking forward to next year.
Before:

After the mud:

And finally, after the “showers”

Be sure to catch us next year, we’ll be sure to come in costume!
