Hell Run

Hell Run 2011

Why is there always fire at the end?
 
Janet had the best name--but Mike should start his own line of camouflage hats.


Amanda with Jodi at her first obstacle race!
Really -- I took the time to change!



Warrior Dash

The Warrior Dash was a blast! A little cold and rainy, but the obstacles weren't bad and they broke up the run!

I should use this for my next Firewise presentation!

Jana and her turkey leg!


Just a little muddy



Why am I the only one wearing horns?


Post race, pre beer


Trying to catch up to Randy!




Hell Run is next on October 1st!

Are you a Warrior?

Just a couple of months until the Warrior Dash so I guess I better get in shape for it. The warrior dash is an 11 obstacle 3.55 mile course.

Went on a painful run this morning (primarily due to not taking care of myself at all last week) The dogs had fun though. Tonight: push-ups and sit-ups. We need to get our chin-up bar put up!

Adventures in volunteering....

All I can say is that I was asked to volunteer my time for a socially conscious project and was scolded for not doing more! I promised to do some prototypes, was well on my way to finishing them in the allotted time, then scolded for not being able to coordinate the entire project because the founder did not understand the technology. Not what I signed up for. Why do people take advantage of volunteer efforts? It was such a good project, I was doing what I promised, but apparently not enough. I'm not saying that people should not volunteer, but even when volunteering check everything out before accepting. One email from the project founder stated that she thought I was putting my husband, family and real job ahead of her project and I totally agree that I was. Is that so bad? Another email came to me with the following statement:


"I knew the right people with the right combination of skills were out there, so I made a declaration to the universe to send the individuals needed to be a part of this groundbreaking work".


Really, you couldn't have told me this before I signed on? Huh--I find it hard to believe that the universe sent me--but on the other hand, wouldn't putting that I was "sent from the universe" really make by resume stand out in a crowd!

I really like this map...


The quarter is more than halfway through. I'll be happy when I can get some assemblence of my life back. In the meantime--check out this map.
