Mud Run

We were a little disappointed with the event, but Nix still had so so much fun participating, so it was worth it. I wish that the distance was more accurate and I wish they timed it and gave out participation medals. I know, I ask a lot, but I've been to a lot of races and events and they are always a little competitive, not completely for FUN. It was called a Kid's Fun Run, so there you go, it was just for fun. Why did they get a number then? Probably to make sure they paid to participate. Hmmm... This dirty boy didn't keep anything that he is wearing except the blue shorts. The rest of his clothing was thrown in the trash. The shoes already were thrashed with holes, nice timing. I really enjoy the Kids run that they hold for the OC Marathon. We couldn't do it this year because of wedding conflicts.

So Nix woke up with me at 6:30am to register for the run at 7am. Then we went back to the event at 11am for the race. He ran the race, then after he finished, he said, "I want to do that again." It was too short, so I said, "Go for it," so he ran it again and again, until he was very muddy and they were almost done cleaning up. Tino wouldn't go in the mud, he had fun running around the weeds. We had some gatorade, showered Nix off, then headed home. It was a fun afternoon, and he has a muddy number souvenir.
