Obstacles

On October 6, 2012, we got a group together to do the Terrain mud run at Old Tucson Studios. We do the three mile event in about 90 degrees. It really was too hot for me to enjoy running around the desert BUT we all had a great time. The Youtube video was done by the event staff and sadly we did not make the video. However, whenever one has me around there has to be plenty of photos. I bought a few waterproof disposable cameras and documented the fun. My niece, Deanna, and my sister where visiting from Washington so Deanna did the run with us. Also enjoying the challange was Sara, Anita, Phil, Christian, Tyler, Calvin, and Shannon. They had a hard time making mud because the desert there was too sandy but there was plenty of murky water. We will be doing it again in a few weeks but doing the 5 mile run. Hopefully it will cool down a few degrees before we do it. So, these photos are seriously out of order but who cares....

See ya - The last I saw of some of then until the end of the race.  Oh well, how can I expect to keep up with the 20 year olds.

The water is murky but it felt so good to cool off!!

These where hard to get over.
