You got mud on your face...

Mudders or Mudding is the act of play in mud. Is it? No I made that up but that basically sums up last Saturday. Now before you become distraught with the thought that Slugger and I are not actually grownups and that we like to play in the mud let me put your mind at ease. First we are the most ungrownup grownups around and second just Slugger played in the mud last Saturday.
Slugger's company participated in the Camp Pendleton mud run and that was exactly what it was a mud run. The course was a 10K and had a huge hill (like most courses in CA do) but in addition there were mud walls and a 6ft river they had to cross and at the end a mud pit(started out as a water pit and slowly turned to mud). It was disappointing to me that I couldn't see the course except for the mud pit but it was entertaining.
Having participated in more races than I can count over the years I have never watched one. It was different to be a spectator but different good in that I could ease drop on conversations occurring around me. Slugger did great! I am so proud of him! Oh and guess what kids. You'll never believe it. No really guess. ok I'll just tell you... I took pictures. That's right I (meaning Slugger) remembered the camera! So here you are! Eat your heart out!

This was before the runners went through.
