Primal Mud Run

My friend Shannon and I ran in the Primal Mud Run this morning in Warrenton.  It is basically a 4 mile obstacle course. 

We had to scale big walls, wade through freezing cold creeks while carrying a heavy sandbag, but the most fun part was sliding down a huge Slip-N-Slide down a mountain (well, it was fun until it dumped you into chest-deep ice cold water).  And, since it was a mud run, we had to army crawl through mud underneath barbed wire. 

The experience was very cold but lots and lots of fun. 

I'm trying to talk Alex into running it next year with me, but he tells me that none of that sounds like any fun.  I have a year to try to change his mind; I think I can do it.  :)
