Run Zombie Run

A couple weeks back, one of my derby teammates, Jen, Jodi and I totally lost our minds and participated in our first mud run!  Mud Run: a fun running race that has various obstacles like: hay bales, wall climbs, crawls, tunnels, and of course, mud pits and mud crawls!  Our race involved all these obstacles as well as a water obstacle (think running in water to your knees), a log carry obstacle, a tree trunk walking obstacle, a ravine obstacle, and - BONUS - we had to avoid the zombies that were chasing us at every turn.  We started the race with a belt that had three flag football flags.  The zombies were after the flags.  If we were able to finish the race with at least one flag still attached, then we finished "alive."  As you can see from the picture, we finished the race alive and even received a medal to prove it!  It was not an easy race, but it was super fun, and Bret gets a shout out for running zombie distraction for us at the end so we could finish with our flags!  Look out zombies - now that we've got one under our belt, we're out to get you next year!
