We Are Warriors

So there's this thing called, the Warrior Dash.  It's a race, an obstacle course race, a little over 3 miles, through water, mud, up and over half walls, under barbed wire, up muddy hills with flowing water, up and over 15 foot walls, over a rope course, over logs floating in the water, a giant slip n' slide, oh, and leaping over fire...And a BIG part of the race is dressing up.  You see all kinds of things there, let me say that again ALL kinds of things.  It was the first time Ben and I got to do it.  Last year we were supposed to join, but Ben was injured so we couldn't.  And last year our friends dressed up in Gwinnett County bright orange jail jumpsuits.  They were a big hit!  This year, well, we went as prom dates...

The guys, I mean, girls, I mean, guys?

Girls? Guys?

Matt was trooper, see, his wife, Alisa is pregnant so she wasn't participating so that left Matt dateless, in a dress...Good sport!

Some of our crew, Britton climbing in the car in the foreground, Matt in the green and white, Chris and Kim coming out of the car.  In the back you can see Ben in the bright red on top of the car.

The wall, me and Mandy going up...

And coming down.  What you don't see is the 30 seconds of us contemplating life at the top thinking we were going to die up there.

Jumping the fire!

All finished. And dirty everywhere!  But so much fun!
