Pre-race routine:

Just put on crappy clothes so I can throw them away after.
Event warmup:

Stand around and laugh at the awesome costumes.

I went to this race expecting a total cluster but I wanted my t-shirt. Completely surprised by organized event.

The course starts out with pyrotechnics (read:shooting fire!) to start you off. It's a cross-country (muddy) run that leads across some creeks, down and up the embankments, walk the plank, swim over logs in a pond and general shenanigans. Jump over the fire pit and crawl under thr barb wire through the mud at the end. No one seemed to really be racing hard - just having a blast. I just tried not to twist an ankle on this thing and really had FUN! I kept missing the photographers. It is just hard enough to make you think you ran a little and easy enough that you aren't really tired at all.

The course was advertised as 3.51 miles - no way. It would be lucky if it is even 3 miles.

Don't know official time yet but my watch got about 34 minutes.

Warm down:

Got washed off by the truck hose. Great idea!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Who cares - this was fun to do something I had not done before.

Event comments:

Totally fun!

Sounds fun!  I'm doing the one in Georgia May 22.  I only signed up because I WANT ONE OF THOSE VIKING HELMETS!

I didn't realize the race is that short though.  Can we keep starting over and doing it again until our legs give out?  Ha!
