Mud, Sweat, & Cheers 5K Obstacle course

This 5K consisted of running through tires, jumping over barriers, climbing over a rope bridge, jumping over large, round hay bales, climbing a huge hill, and climbing through the mud pit. It was a blast!

David going through the mud at the end - he dove into the mud pit.

 

Right after the 5K - before we cleaned off

With friends from work. David's shirt was white.

 Mud, Sweat, and Cheers Run--David, Parker, Michael
Michael got 1st place (out of 1) in his age group in the 1 mile run.
They LOVED this one.

 

 

We've had some fun this fall running around.  Notice that I am absent from all photos.  I did go to the Eastman Run--because they were serving a pre-race pasta dinner!!  David has really gotten the older kids into running with him.  They have had lots of great times and a few sore muscles.
