Mud Run

We completed our 2nd annual Marine Corp Ultimate Challenge Mud Run yesterday at Fort Jackson, SC. It was a 4.2 mile course filled with obstacles and mud pits which we completed in a team of 4. It was quite the event with over 1200 teams participating. Our team, the Puddlejumpers, finished 394th. Our friends Lindsay and Kevin were crazy enough to join us and even want to do it again next year! After the race Curtis won a t-shirt in the pull-up contest. What a stud! He hasn't taken the shirt off yet and hasn't stopped talking about how he would be the ultimate marine. We could hardly get out of bed this morning but it worth it! Nothing beats the taste of mud in your mouth and using 8 Q-tips to get the mud out your ears.

I can totally see Curtis LOVING his shirt! Way to go on the mud run- it doesn't look like something I would ever have the guts to participate in!

Tell me, did your tummy tuck hurt as much as the liposuction, or are my eyes playing tricks on me...

WHO looks that good just months after having a child??? WHO?? Congrats on your mud run AND your rockin' bod. You are my HERO!

And are you sure Calla is really yours? Excuse me, I have never looked like you 2 months postpartum. Does Curtis know he is married to a superhero woman?
