A Member Of Mudder Nation!

What is Mudder Nation you ask?  It's only referred to as one of the toughest events on the planet! It makes 5k and 10k mud runs seem like a waste of a clean sports bra!  Here's some course facts for Norcal Mudder.  It's 2170 feet of vertical gain over 10.3 miles up and down the craziest mountains you will ever see including a 40 degree slope on the almost 1 mile climb known as the "Cliffhanger".  Then as if that wasn't enough, there were 25 killer obstacles along the way including things like "Arctic Enema", a 34 degree tank of water you had to jump into, then swim underneath a board in order to get out of.  And of course there was "Electroshock Therapy", a mud bog with electrified wires hanging down that you had to run through.  Oh and mud...so much mud! 

Nice and clean before we started!

We did this with 8 other couples on a team called, "Couples Therapy: Mud.Pain.Love".  It might not sound like it, but really it was a blast!

 I had so many cuts and bruises and even a real finger injury which has yet to fully heal!  But hey... that's what you do for that awesome orange headband!

So...do you bleed orange? You know you want to!
