A few weekends back, the hubs and I ran our second ever race together. This particular event was a 10k obstacle course, put on by a local event company. The really great thing was that it was a smaller crowd than you would see at the Spartan/Warrior/Mudder events, and was run by some pretty cool folks. The other really awesome thing was that proceeds went to a local charity.
I got the FiveFingers out for the first time in awhile, and they served me well until the first mud pit. From there, I had pebbles in my shoe the rest of the run & ended up with some pretty nasty blisters. But c’est la vie! Now, I didn’t break any records, but considering the trail running & obstacles, I’d say my time of 1:18 wasn’t too shabby.
Super fun time, and this is definitely a race I’ll be looking forward to next year.
