Mud Run

What's your idea of a good time on a Saturday morning?  A lazy breakfast?  Hitting up some garage sales?  What about running a 10k military style obstacle course in the mud?  While I have to admit this does not sound like my idea of a good time, when Matt heard about this fundraising event for the MS Foundation he jumped right on board.  So after weeks of coordinating a team and fundraising, he and Scotty headed down to Harrah's for the big event.  They completed the course in 2 hours and 7 minutes in nearly 100 degree weather.  Pretty impressive because I was exhausted just from pushing the stroller!  But they had a great time and raised some money and awareness for a very important cause.
A portion of the obstacle course.
Matt and Scotty crawling out of a mud pit headed towards the finish.

Thank you guys for taking the time to participate.  It means a lot to me and everyone else living with MS everyday.  And if you hear about a mud run in your area, get involved.  Matt said it was so much fun he'd do it again this Saturday if he could!
