Here it is, the moment you all have been waiting for.... Warrior Dash
Blog!!!!
I really need to get some sleep. It is getting late and this warrior needs her rest. Wait... Ooooo, maybe I do want to dress up after all. I mean, Kelly and I wore TuTu's last year and it was indeed too too cute. Hmmm... maybe I will see what I can scrounge up last minute.

What good can really come of a 24 hour Wal-Mart? I should have had my butt in bed hours ago but here I am, decorating a t-shirt for tomorrow- wait, today. Crap, I need to get to bed.

Is it time to get up yet? How about now? Now?

I can not lay here another hour. I am sooooo pumped. But what shall I do with the extra time? I can't hardly sit here and twiddle my thumbs for much longer. I know, I will do pushups. I might as well get warmed up.
40push-ups at 5 in the morning? Have I lost my damn mind? I hear war does that to soldiers some times.

Umm... Our wave was at 10:30 but since we are still in the car in traffic, we have agreed to go rouge on our wave and go when ever the heck we want! Cause that's how we roll! Where is Lynn? *Sending good juju her way!

Still running, so far so good. All of us are looking strong and keeping a good steady pac-Gail is down! MAN DOWN MAN DOWN!

Still freaking running. I hate running! There was not this much straight-a-way last year and Kelly keeps looking back to check on me. Uhhh... Why did I sign up for this? Wait, I am STILL running- Hell Freakin' Yea!!! Go me, go me....Oh' shit- a wall.

I hate to be a stick in the mud but I was just literally stuck in the mud. I cleared 5 walls in a row all to get stuck in the mud. Jessica was pushing my ass, 2 or 3 girls were pulling each arm... it was a site to see! But... I made it... first obstacle cleared. Back to the damn running part.

Screw it, I am walking the hills. I'll train for hills NEXT year. Besides, I am ROCKING these obstacles. Up and over like a champ. We all are in fact. Go us!

Ummm... I didn't get the memo about the fire being bigger this year. Gee... I hope someone takes a picture. This would make a kick ass action shot.

Oh look... Lynn is at the finish line cheering us on! I barely
recognized her in all that mud. Warrior Log: 5/18/12 -1206 hours.
Go team!!! We killed it and have our medals to show for it. Now, where do we sign up for next year? Better yet, wheres the beer and hot dogs?

Showered and fed, thank goodness for the VIP Tent for St. Jude. Otherwise, Lynn and I would have never had a chance to shower together in the Men's shower. (Hmmm, that sounds like a start of a whole new kinda blog.) *Giving a mental shout out to everyone that donated!!!
Warrior Log: 5/18/12 -Sometime later that night
I am so proud, I am so tired, I am so bruised and I can not wait to start training for the Rebel Race.
Thank you girls for taking part
with me in one of the most memorable hours of my life.
Thank you Kelly and Xavy for
giving me the courage and strength to make it all possible.
