This weekend several of us participated in the first ever Texas Warrior Dash. It is a 3-3.5 mile obstacle. It involved running through lots of mud, walking a plank, going down into a ravine, running through a creek bed, climbing up the ravine, swimming in a lake and having to jump over logs in the lake, more mud, climbing walls, cargo nets and hay bales, jumping fire, and then crawling under barbwire in more mud. It was a fantabulous time!
Cass wanted to do this for her birthday so myself, John Cobb and Rob Shane signed up for the Sunday leg. We got to Dallas early on Saturday and visited with Ashley, Brent and Sienna. Ashley was very very very pregnant and is going to pop at any time. Sienna and Abby got to play together and have fun. We then met up with Cass who had done her warrior dash earlier that day. We went to eat for her birthday in downtown Dallas. The funniest thing at dinner is Abby apprently pooed and felt the need to put her hand down the back of her pants and come up with a handful of POOOOOOOO! Cass and I couldn't stop laughing but that just ticked Tracy off more :). I finally changed her and went on with the evening.
The next morning we went to the Forney place where we were doing this and met up with Rob and John. People were dressed in all sorts of costumes and I totally wish I had gotten pictures of them but alas I didnt. This race had cool gear...we got a shirt and a warrior helmet! After the race we just relaxed in the big field and drank (free beer) and ate and let Abby run all over. We finally drove back because I had to get ready. I start a new job tomorrow!
