Warrior Dash 2010

YEAH!
Pat is a true WARRIOR! He made it...here he is coming through the finish line!



Dan did the race too, but had already cleaned up before I snapped a picture of him!!
There was about 5,000 people that earned their Warrior Titles on Saturday! It ROCKED...and OH YES, I AM DOING IT NEXT YEAR!!
What is Warrior Dash?? It's a crazy, insane race that sends runners through muddy mayhem on a 3.15-mile obstacle course in the quest to become Warrior royalty. You have to rappel down steep ravines, swim through waist deep water over a bunch of big logs, run up steep hills, run down steep slippery muddy hills, speed step through hundreds of tires, maneuver over cargo nets, climb up and over huge straw bales, climb/jump over rusted, wrecked cars and trucks, navigate through DARK, TOTALLY BLACK trenches, leap over actual FIRE and scramble beneath barbed wire as you near the finish!!
Sounds easy...right??
Pat did the entire race in 26.57. He was 36th out of 319 in his group. Not to shabby for an old guy- Just kidding...you rock Pat!
We had a whole group of friends that did this event and I am proud of all of them! It was great to see them finish and accomplish something so crazy! YOU ALL ROCK!
I am excited for my turn next year...
PS: there will be hundreds of pictures floating around FB this week...also, here is the link to the actual event-
