this past summer in choteau we also did a mud run. it was pretty entertaining to all dress up and watch my relatives run this race and do the obstacles (or attempt to do the obstacles). the girls payed homage to our heritage and we dressed as viking women, long braids and all. and the men payed homage to the fact the uncle lars lives in vegas and has access to all kinds of elvis gear.
kyle left me behind in the dust, and actually RAN the race, he came in first out of all my family and came in 21st overall! my baby has got some speed!
now this was a country race, so our obstacles included hay bales, lots of hay bales, mud, dirt, creeks, running through the bed of a truck, wheeling a wheelbarrow full of manure around a barn, running up and down a hill of asphalt, the worst: the culvert, basically crawling through that long tunnel under the bridge on our hands and knees in the creek, and lots more!
