LoziLu , an all female mud race, is the perfect mud run for first timers. Some of the obstacles were extremely easy such as jumping over logs and going over & under walls. Overall, though, I think the trail running wore me out more than obstacles. The only obstacle I was hesitant about was the high wall. I couldn't find anyplace to fit my hand and I'm too short to reach the top. I had to do the lower wall. Bummed. But the net, over/under walls and rope climbing to the top of the slide were challenging and FUN!
I gotta say though, something has been bugging me. There were about 20 of us, all different fitness levels. Some of the more fit runners were getting frustrated and said some inappropriate things. They knew everyone was at different stages of their fitness; they should have joined another team. After that comment, the whole "we are a team" vibe seemed fake to me. Completely bummed me out b/c as the team leader, I really wanted everyone to stay together and have a more supportive attitude. Lesson learned, I guess.
Not gonna end this on a negative note. Just wanna say I'm soooo looking forward to running with my husband, Richard, next weekend. Then Warrior Dash June 1 --- yeah, this sister is HOOKED!
