I lost the weight so now it's time to put my body to work. I had done a 5K mud run years ago so I figured lets do something like that only really put work into it and not just fool around. So I signed up for a Tough Mudder.....it's only 10 or 11 miles that the British Special Forces designed. Boy was I in for a surprise. The hills you see below are nothing compared to what we climbed up deeper into the run. Black Diamond Slopes are meant to be skied down not climbed up. The obstacles I was scared of ended up being easier than I thought. It was the ones that I didn't give much thought to. Like what it really felt like to jump in freezing ice filled water. As hard as this was to do and dig deep to keep going, I had the funnest time. I really want to do another one of these in the future and think that everyone should try it at least once. You don't really know what you can do until you try.
I made good use of my
Go energy shots along the way. They gave me the perfect little boost while looking up at the next mountain I had to climb
