Today's inspiration is brought to you by a future mud run. Doing a mud run is on my bucket list but I've either never had anyone nuts enough to do it with me or I didn't think I was in good enough shape to not die in the middle of the mud. Well two coworkers just finished one and they are planning on doing it again next year... I eagerly begged them to let me join. I promised not to die.
I now have 360 days to get ready. In other words I have 360 days to drop at least 60 lbs and get into better shape. As in be able to pull myself up a giant wall with the help of very cute firefighters, be able to crawl over round bales, and not die in the belly crawl pit because I suffocated in the mud because a nap sounded sensational half way through the mud run. I'm over half way through my 30s. I think it's time to cross something off my bucket list and the prospects of my husband taking me to Italy or Ireland between now and then are slim. He would just complain the whole trip anyways.. It's his way of communicating his joy of travel. :)
Today in an attempt to get ready I walked with the office speed walkers. My hands got swollen and my ankles officially hate me. Could be the $12 Walmart shoes or the weight or the fact that I'm a midget trying to keep up with normal height woman who zip around the parking lot like no ones business. I thought I was in shape once. Now I wonder.
