Mud Run 10k in Fort Worth


Today, my friend Ardis and I ran the Mud Run 10k in Fort Worth. It was brutal but lots of fun!

The weather wasn't as bad as yesterday and it was even sunny.

I wasn't too worried about the race since my goal was to finish. I knew I could handle 10k and I knew I could handle the mud. I wasn't too sure about the weather and I definitely didn't know about the military-style obstacles!

It turned out to be a great race. Lots of fun, encouraging participants and volunteers. It was rough running in hiking shoes, mudy and wet but I made it through. :)

The obstacles ranged from going over a wall, to going up a rope ladder, crawling under wire in the mud and going underwater to pass under obstacles. Here are a few pictures of last year's race: photos I'll update the link when this year's pictures are posted.


I think it took me about 1h05 - 1h10, which isn't bad all things considered. Waiting on the official results.
