Phoenix Mud Run - April 27, 2013

On Saturday, Jim and I did another mud run in Phoenix. This time we only did 3 miles because it was a very hot day. When we finished at 11:15am it was close to 90 degrees out. Yowza! We had so much fun though. We finished pretty well. Jim finished in 44 minutes and I finished in 47 minutes. We both finished 9th in our age group & gender (out of about 60). Jim finished 85th overall and I finished 140th overall with about 650 participants. The difference between 85th and 140th was only 3 minutes. I was happy because I wasn't last. Mostly, people are there to have fun and that is exactly what we did.

Now through the mud under the barbed wire

Yes, I think this is really fun.  Really!

Done with that.

Random people thinking the Gopro is cool.
