Mud Run





On Saturday Eric and some of our good friends ran in the Marine Core Mud Run in Colombia, South Carolina.  They ran 5.2 miles and completed 32 obstacles.  They had 2 teams, each with 4 people, and with an age range of 14 to 57. They all loved it! 
I watched the 7 kids and we took lots of pictures.  It was definitely muddy, dirty, and disgusting, but actually looked like a lot of fun.  I am definitely in next year!  GG and NG were able to run the last leg of the race with their Daddy and go over the last obstacle (some kind of log thing).   They were thrilled!  Eric said he would do it again in a heartbeat.  All the money raised from the 9,000 mudrunners goes to the marine veterans, and at each obstacle there were marines cheering on the runners. Maybe I can get Eric to add his commentary on the mud run to my blog....
