Dirty Girl
Well, I admit it, I am a Dirty Girl. Dirty Girl is a 5K that has 12 obstacles in it, that are all entirely in MUD. And they start you off with a bang! We got 1/4 of a mile, and there was the first obstacle, army crawl your way through a tunnel of mud. It is a little freaky because it's pitch black, mud is going up your nose, you are enclosed, and you can't see where you are going. It's not something anyone claustrophobic should do. From there on out, it is nothing but more obstacles, running, squishy mud, and the most fun ever.
I will admit, I banged up my knee's pretty badly. I always have to challenge myself, and there was this giant wall, that you have to scale, and then climb back down. There is a tiny tiny slat for you to try to grip on with your hands and feet, but imagine how many girls there are, with mud, and the little slats are nothing but mud piles. I made it all the way to the top, and was about to pull up the climb over, and I lost my grip and slid hands and feet scraping the wood, the entire 13 feet down. OMG. I was bleeding something fierce. However, I am determined and a little blood and pain didn't stop me, so I tried again, and made it! I wasn't as happy the next day when I literally couldn't walk, because my poor knees, but I will do it again :)
I went with a group of friends, 2 who I have known since I was 5. I am lucky to have such amazing fun friends and to have shared such a fun experience with them!
(Those are my knees the next day, I was laying down, so the angle is odd).
