Mamas In Training

Who wants to roll in the mud?

ME!!!! This event looks so fun I can't stand it! The basic gyst is that there is an obstable course which is seperated into 5 legs of obstacles (cargo net crawl, a wall, monkey bars, hay bale obstable) and you are switching with your partner between biking, running and crawling all through the MUD! You can even wear a costume! At the end-- they hose you off! Check out MuddyBuddy.com! Anyone want to meet in Boulder or L.A.????

Get on it!

The one thing I'm learning is that in order to participate in events -- you've got to plan for them and REGISTER! They are all ready over before I've even registered for them!

I wanted to do the Little Red Riding Hood and the Tour de Cure -- both of them . . . OVER! I've got to be ready and plan in advance for next year.

A few other events on my horizon -- I'm shooting for the Echo sprint triathlon -- just need to track down a wet suit to borrow -- sounds chilly! The Cache Valley Classic sounds cool - it might even be fun to do some relay events.

If anyone hears about any fabulous bike races -- please email! Biking is by far my favorite (I still loathe running, and I even just got back from a run!)
