Another addition to the drone of Summer- the high sun beaming on you, the look ahead to the coming fall and one of the toughest 5k's...like the world turning it reappears every year! It is almost always around the end of July (July 29th, 2017)

| These guys are ready for the race! |
A Circus-like atmosphere permeates the circle of tents which include Vendors, Djs, Food & Drink, Check-in for the Event and more! They even have a Mobile Locker Service in the form a large truck with lockers in it back. For a small fee your stuff can be safe. GREAT IDEA. Although I have never had a problem, I like to feel safe. The Event's storage area consists of putting your stuff on a table with a tag. You have the your Race Bib number match it to get the item.

The Runners go in "Waves" of about 200 people every half hour for most of the day. There are about 12 Obstacles that vary from a small lagoons to a fire pit that one jumps over.

I was surprised this year with so many Walkers but that's fine as everyone goes at their own pace. About half way through is the lagoon and after that..ALMOST EVERYONE WALKED! It was so exhausting for sure!

| What a jump! |
From ditches to trenches to water pouring down on you as you try to walk on placks, this event is not for the faint of heart! The best part is jumping over the fire pit near the end! Pretty cool! WELL, there is plenty of food and adult beverages for the VICTORIOUS! Also some games and entertainment with a LIVE DJ!
SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!
THE PICTURES!
