Coming up this week

Okay people. I'm putting this post up mainly for my benefit to psych myself up for 3.02 hellish miles of warrior craziness on Sunday. Jay, Annie, Debbie & myself have (stupidly) signed ourselves up for an obstacle course. Warrior Dash. Heard of it? I hadn't - and sort of wish I never had, since now my debut as a Warrior is less than a week away. It sounded fun - cool - bad*ss - when I first checked out the site. Now - not so much. More like, what was I thinking?!?! HOWEVER, despite the fears raised by my obstacle course comm padres that we might die while completing this obstacle course - we get one of these sweet babies when we complete the course


I should add that according to Valerie, we get these when we arrive at the Warrior Dash event, so maybe technically, we don't have to complete the course? Here's hoping. :) JUST KIDDING!

But, you better believe that this chic will be sporting this Warrior helmet immediately after completing the obstacle course (assuming I have survived). I can't wait (to wear the helmet)!

I wish I could share with you the obstacle course map, but I can't figure out how to get it linked to my post right now (hey, it's been a long weekend). But, here's what I can remember: jumping over fire, running through gale force winds & rain, climbing walls marine-style, going under barbed wire, all kinds of funky net climbing stuff....you get the picture. Insane.

Wish us luck. And check back for pictures.
