The Dirty Dash

I'm not quite sure why but for some crazy reason Mike decided it would be fun to run in the Dirty Dash this past weekend with a group of friends from his work. Now you have to understand that Mike hasn't worked out in about six years. Yes, you heard that right--SIX YEARS! But he really took this 5K race seriously and trained hard by walking on our treadmill for about 10 minutes. When the race began he started out sprinting with the crowd up this muddy hill like he was all in shape and then less than a minute into it he was huffing and puffing and walking. I think he was already limping and holding his side by that point. He pretty much walked the whole thing and kept getting so mad that all of these "fat girls" (as he called them) kept passing him up!!! It was pretty hilarious hearing him tell about it. Now he's super motivated to get in shape (I wonder why?). I'm super proud of him though for finishing and am so glad I got to be there with Bryson to cheer him on. Here's a look at some of the action:
