I just found the Muddy Buddy race and am having a hard time finding a buddy. Most people that I have asked shy away from the muddy part of the race. Just a side note... Although I have been training since January and have done my first tri already, I still have a long way to go. I will most likely be walking most of the running part and the obstacles might be a small challenge for me. With that being said, does anyone want or need a buddy for this race?

I will check the calendar and see if anything is planned and if the race is a Saturday or Sunday.  If a Saturday, them most likely not.  If a Sunday, then it's possible.

Also, since it's a month out and I've just started running again, I would be slow around the course as well.

Unfortunately i already registered and have a partner, but just wanted to say that the muddy buddy's are a blast.  This is my 5th year doing them.  Hope to see you there.

TYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! I just started running again, myself! What is up with you? We should be shot for not having hung out yet!!

The Muddy part is what sounds like fun to me, but then I'm not really all that much of a girlie girl.

When/where is this race? Even if I don't enter ... I might like to spectate what I can spectate.

Either cupcake is very busy training or I'm not her cup o' motivation cuz I've been pinging without much success.

Man! Now I feel guilty And I'm not busy training, although I should be. Just had a lot of crap come down at home this week.

The race is August 3rd in Gilberts (just outside of Elgin...our neck of the woods) and starts at 9 I think. It seems like it would be a fun thing to participate in and spectate...at least the mud pit part

Nothing to feel guilty about ... in the past year or so, I've gotten married ... moved 700 or so miles and completely transitioned into a new career at mid-life. I'm the poster child for change and weirdness. I would love to do this race ... but I may be out of town for work up until the 2nd. Nothing like a little jet lag and no time to prepare, right? Let me know if Ty can't make it ...

Did some running and the plantar faci...ummmm....foot pain came back with a bang so I don't think I'd be making the best partner.  I do hope you find someone to partner with and have a BLAST!!!

Hope your foot gets better! Turns out Chicago is sold out anyway. I'll have to wait until next year
