THE DIRTY DASH
MIDWAY, UTAH
Cameron and I have been wanting to do this race called
THE DIRTY DASH
since we heard about it last year!
So when it was time to register we jumped at the chance and recruited a few of our
FUN, ADVENTUROUS, LOVING, DIRTY FRIENDS
We came up with the name
Their Mothers Were Mudders!
So we decided to wear some tight clothing because we didn't want to leave anything behind in the mud pits.
I found these socks and headbands and all the guys were good sports about it.
Once we got going and then we all realized how SMART it was to wear tall socks!
I was pretty proud of myself.
So here we all are right before the start of the so called
MUD BATH!
AND...
HERE we are after the 3.25 miles of mud and obstacles.
There were all sorts if obstacles... mud pits, mud slides, rope climb, walls, tall walls, hurdles, more mud pits, snow making machines with water hitting you full blast, hay bails, logs, pipes, more mud pits, mud slides, HUGE mud slides, and best water slide ever and then finally at the very end an even bigger mud pit and mud slide!
They told us to stay as a group so we would finish as a group... and what a fun group and a fun time we had by all!!
I would say that after it was all said and done Pat and I were the muddiest of the mudders of our group!
My mud was due to my husband that pulled me down the very first mud pit and I hit it hard!
I don't think it would have been as fun if I didn't have this guy running by my side!!!
Same with this girl!!!
I am soooooo glad that her and her husband Steve decided to run with us!!!
Here is the beginning of the race.
You can see the hill that you start off running up right at the very beginning.
Here is the end of the race and right before that YELLOW FINISH line thing is a huge mud pit that we all either jumped in or slid in together. I loved it that Steve did a canon ball right at the edge of the pit and got a lot of the spectators with mud!!! That wasn't the first canon ball either! You can see all the people running down the hill towards the big mud pit!
Here is a picture of the HUGE WATER SLIDE!!!
This was probably the best part of the whole thing.
IT WAS A BLAST!!!! Until the end when everyone slammed into everyone at the bottom.
I would say that this is probably one of the funnest things that I have done in a really long time.
The invitation is out for the next race
~~SEPTEMBER 22~~
WHO IS IN WITH US!!!
