I’d be pretty excited to jog two miles. The last time I did any kind of running was two years ago when I tested my time for running a mile and a half. That was fun.
NOT!!!
Agreed,
I would rather stand in line at the DMV, be bludgeoned to death by a dull spoon, and watch the TV Guide channel than run 2 miles.
Maybe I could run two miles if a chocolate cheesecake was dangled on a string in front of me. Or if I was being chased by the cops or an angry dog.

I may borrow some of these mental images to motivate me to 4-miles and for 6-miles, I will just have to imagine all those marines muddy and naked.
I have noticed that my legs are having a harder time after my runs when I do squats or lunges. I would have thought that my running would be increasing my muscle endurance.
I have been MIA for a bit. My damn parents can’t seem to stay out of the hospital but both are home and doing pretty good now! Thank goodness.
But I did get to do the Mud Run! It was so much fun. I am doing it next year. I hope anyone on here who does it will let me know so we can meet up and race to the finish.
Here is a pic of me crawling out of a tunnel after wading through a mud pit. I am in the red shirt.
Here is going up the steep hill. It was narrow and slick and people jostling you and at the top they are spraying a fire hose at you trying to knock you back down. There are run off channels that are going down the middle of the trail that make it so you need to watch your footing.
Here is the start, you can see the spraying water. There were 4000 entrants and that includes individuals and teams. There was a man there is a full business suit with a tie, in dress shoes and carrying a briefcase and he ran it. Of course super heroes, I saw Superman and Batman. Teams dressed as ballerinas (men and women), hula dancers, disco queens, women wearing thongs over their runner shorts, and law enforcement teams.
