What a great race!  The rain held off and I was with "Zebra Trainer" and "Chubaka" (aka QP and spouse).

Highlights were;  yellow ribbons, QP pulling me up the hills, "Is that your breath or did you just "fa_ _?", hot tub, chocolate eclairs, cannon balls, lady in spandex with no panties, and the post-race beer.  

Low lights;  having to leave so soon.

It's Official...WE ARE WARRIORS!

I recommend the Warrior Dash for everyone!  It was a blast!

Fire pit jumping, mud pit sloshing, cargo net conquering, barb wire crawling bundle of fun.

We saw Batman, Tarzan, men in suit and ties, girls in bikinis with guys in bikinis!

I could go on and on and on!
