Just checking to see if anyone else on the board was running as an individual or team... We have a team together, Team Golder.com, it'll be written on our backs to be easily seen

From the site:


Welcome to our first Marine Corps Mud Run. If you've never ran in a Marine Mud Run you're in for a treat. If you've ever accepted this challenge you know how much fun it can be. This USMC Mud Run, sponsored by the Marine Corps League Percy John Fulton Detachment 1075, is a fundraising event to support various programs including: The Wounded Marines Program, The United States Marines Youth Physical Fitness Program which promotes a healthy lifestyle free of drugs, alcohol and tobacco, Scholarship Programs, and Toys-for-Tots.

In any event it just like some good fun..

A friend of mine ran something like that up at Quantico... I think it was called the "Run Amok".

He said it was a blast... and he puked as soon as he crossed the finish line!

I'm signed up for a Marine Corp Mud Run later this year- not sure if it is the same one or not. We will be a 2 guy/2 girl team.

I'm a competition fiend, but hate getting dirty.... sooo it could be interesting for me
