Dirty.
The Dirty Dash...this is how we decided to spend our Saturday in September. It was wild and there were so many people with funny costumes running in the mud. It was a 10K in Midway doing all of these obstacles and getting way dirty. Keep in mind this wasn't just any mud...but the worst smelling mud ever.
If you can't tell what is on our faces...they are pig noses. Get it? Pigs run in the mud. I thought we were pretty creative but lots of people wore pig noses. Some of the other funny costumes I saw were people running in their wedding dress and tuxedo, a viking, grown men in leotards, and people in their business suits. By the way...I trained for this race and it was still SO hard. Nick didn't even train as much as me but had no problem doing all of the hard obstacles. He was just jumping over haybells no problem, getting his leg stuck in the mud all the way up to his hip and still moving fast. I didn't get it. Why do guys have so much more endurance. I felt like my shoes were heavy pieces of lead because they had so much mud on them. Here is what the race looked like.
And if you are wondering what the filthy finish looked like in the end....here ya go. Everybody kept telling Nick to do a cannonball into the pool of mud and he did. Then he proceeded to the finish line doing backstrokes in the mud. It was pretty hilarious. I loved doing this with Nick and it was a way fun experience. There were a couple of times I couldn't even run because I was laughing so hard at people falling down and just eating it in the mud. Until next year...
