10 Miles of Fun!



The Toughest Mudders

Sprayed with high power hoses, then they had to crawl under barbed wire

Taylor got it on the first try

I had a very relaxing day at Jerry's.  I slept most of the time and had gourmet rotisserie chicken for lunch from Wegmans.  We did do a few walks to get some exercise, but not even close to what Taylor and his friends did today at Tough Mudder.  The course was over the top...literally!  It went up and over a ski mountain and then through a golf course.  Taylor and Jon blew away their competition.  There were hundreds of people in their heat and they finished over an hour before the rest of the pack.  People who started at 8:00 and 9:00 were just finishing and when they got to the end, and they did not start until 10:00!  Even though it was 10 miles, they finished like true warriors and did not whine at all.  The other two guys, Kevin and Tom also did amazing.  Tom finished even with a blown-out knee.  Linda got a good workout too chasing them all over the ski slopes to watch them complete the obstacles.
