The Big Mud Run!

Today was the big day for Dad to run in the Mud Run...a 4.2 mile obstacle course organized by the US Marine Corp. Dad's team started off around 10:30 and by the time Abby, May May and I saw him cross the finish line a little after 11, he was completely covered in mud! He was a part of a 4 man team and the last obstacle was carrying one man in on a stretcher 100 yards to the finish line.

So what do you have to tell us, Dad? Was it as tough as you thought? "....Yeah, it was tough but it was a lot of fun!"

Are you ready for next year? "OH absolutely!"

Abby, May May and I had fun seeing a lot of people we knew and give all the participants a HIGH FIVE for a job well done. It's a little too messy for us!

Here is one of the obstacles we saw that was near the end of the course.
Here are some coworkers from work! I think that is you, Melissa!
Here comes Dad's team.... "Slow Children at Play".


Almost Finished!!! Finished in 1 hour 8 minutes! Great Job, Guys!!

Abby isn't sure what to think of her Muddy Daddy!!



We're proud of you, Da - da! :)
