Getting Muddy!

Last weekend I found myself waking up very very early thanks to friend and PT E (again!). We had signed up for the Warrior Dash in Northam, about 1 hour east of Perth. Coffee and tunes were my friends as I drove up the hill as the sun rose.



When I arrived the nerves really started to kick in, as the thought of the 5km obstacle course set in. E is a machine so there was no way I would be able to keep up with her, so I quickly made friends with another couple from our gym, who I though could at least give me a leg up if need be.



Here I am about to wet myself pre-race!


Having done the 10km Western Mudd Rush last year I thought this would be slightly easier. THE HILL RUNNING KILLED ME! But I am proud to say that I finished in the top 20% of racers and managed to complete all of the obstacles. I did get very very muddy and am sporting a few bruises but it was a blast!

And what better way to finish than with a beer!
