The MUD run

IMG_9881

Today, Kevin and Dad participated in the Mankato 5k Mud run. It looked like a lot of fun and I’m definitely going to do it next year. Here is dad checking out the depth of the mud pit pre-race. It was about 18 inches along the edge and deeper in the middle.

Here they are right out of the gate. The first obstacle was this pile of tires. I love the 2nd picture of Kev. He was literally jumping over them.

After they ran by, we continued to play on the playground and then made our way over to the mud pit for the big finale.

About 20 short minutes later Dad came up the devil of a hill, over the 2 walls and into the mud. Geez, he was fast!

Kevin’s approach to the mud pit was to take a leap as far as he could into it.

Of course after they finished, they looked drastically different. Dad ended up taking 2nd place in his age division.
