Run or Swim?

Since having Will, I have slowly gotten back in the routine of running again. As a motivator, I signed up for the winter series of trail races here (4 races, ranging from 3K-10K). Since Carl ran the road race series that took place prior to Christmas (more races & longer distances), and Will and I went along to cheer him, he said he would reverse roles with me while I do the winter series. What a sweet husband, huh? Anyhow, the race I just had was incredibly MUDDY. It was storming here the week prior, and along with much mud, there were huge mud puddles to trek through.  Though it was fun, it takes a bit of a toll on your legs and race time.  : ) Anyhow, evidence of the mudfest is below!

That looks like so much fun! Good for you, getting back into running. I have been slacking since Jackie J. and I did our half marathon last August. I really need to get back into it.
