It’s only been 2 miles?Dirty Dash (30)

I have to walk THROUGH that river?

Well…this is the first time I’ve been okay wading through an icy river. I feel so…mud-free.Dirty Dash (38)

Isn’t there ANY dry ground around here?

This is the craziest thing, but man, I’m glad I have crazy friends.

Do you think this is good for my skin?

I’m crawling through a muddy tube.

CRAWLING!

MUDDY TUBE!!

Did we really sign up tot his for FUN? And PAY FOR IT?

I’m oddly grateful for shower caps.Dirty Dash (4)

This cloudy day is heavenly.

Midway is simply beautiful.

Oh, cool. The dried mud on my skin makes me look like a lizard.

I need to wipe my sunglasses, but…what’s  the point?

No way! I never knew mud was so buoyant!

THIS HYPOTERMIC SHOWER UNDER A HOSE IS THE MOST HORRIBLE PART OF RUNNING SIX MILES IN MUD!!

What a bunch of dirty girls. Filthy, dirty girls, the lot of us.

Man, I've got cool friends.

We’re going to be so glad we did this. When we’re clean and warm at home. :)

It is as if a giant picked us up and dipped us in his chocolate cake batter. I’m a dipped human….
