Can you believe it the Prince survived and did very well on his test ( at least according to him he did) that he had to take last week ....yes during his
SUMMER! Oh the horror ....having to use brain power during his
SUMMER! We have yet to start the book report, and of course every book we own is boring, the 2 award winning books I checked out at the library from the list the school set home are boring and apparently every friggen book in the world....ding.. ding.. ding....you guessed it BORING!!! My suggestion to you my dear Prince Charming is to get ready to be BORED because you will be doing a book report during your
SUMMER!!!
The hubster and I did another Mud Race last weekend, it was "Mud Endeavor - Under The Lights" which meant it was at night! Okay well our start time was 7:40pm so it wasn't dark yet, but it was pretty close by the time we passed the finish line at 8:47pm. The course was great, even with the light drizzle of rain we had all night, but I am black and blue from some of the obstacles. Not sure who thought it was a good idea to have you run through a long building, with fog smoke and strobe lights because WHY would you want to actually see WHERE you are running only to end up at this tunnel (that you still cant see) and you have to crawl or slide through and it's filled with.... NOPE NOT MUD....Mud I would have been happy with, Mud I would have expected.... nope this was filled with ICE and WATER .... yep ICE WATER!
In the dark with the fog, and the strobe lights so you cant see ...it was about 40 feet long and did I mention filled with ICE WATER?? WTF who thinks of these things?? The hubster went zooming through and was at the other end in no time....as for me? Well as soon as I stuck my foot in and realized what exactly it was, I jumped back out! I had some serious ninja reflexes at that point!! The volunteer working the obstacle, was egging me on, and I think I had some colorful sentence enhancers that I yelled back at him that had something to the effect of they wouldn't get me in that "bleep...bleep ...bleep.... " ICE WATER ...it's freaken cold!!! So after wasting a good 3-5 minutes the guy egging me on went with me as we dove head first into the 40 foot long tunnel of ice water WTF!!! HAHAHAHA if my ass is going to be soaked in ICE friggen WATER ...so was his!!!! I was certain that my hands had fallen off by the time I reached the end of the tunnel, because I had absolutely no feeling in them!!
After the race we showered .....okay if that's what you call it, a bunch of people huddled under a make shift shower that was a pvc pipe with holes, that has a hose shoved it in and absolutely no water pressure. So there you are covered in thick clay mud, and basically standing under a drip...drip...drip. Well at least the hubster can say he got to shower with 4 chicks this weekend, and I wasn't even mad about it!! How many men can say that? Sadly 3 out of the 4 chicks huddled under the drips were men dressed in peach sports bars and matching running skirts!! (OOPS I don't think I was suppose to add that part in hahahahahaha )!! We went to Denny's after we were semi- clean before we ventured back home ~ pretty sure they were worried we wouldn't be able to pay our bill, we looked like total rift raft!
So looking through all the race cards that were in our packet and on the car windshield there are a lot of mud runs and 5k's coming up the hubster pipes in about a 5K he heard about "
Dare to Go Bare". NOW... let that sink in .....say the name again...... "
Dare...... to...... Go .......Bare". Hummm what does that sound like to you? Humm do you have a visual yet? Yep that's right it's a NAKED 5K race?? SERIOUSLY?? I thought he was kidding ....and NOPE he was not!!! Really?
Our discussion went a little like this:
