Dirty Dash

Girls Night Out for The Dirty Dash. Lauren and I headed out shopping about 3pm to find the perfect Dirty Dash outfit. When all was said we spent 6 hours and $15 buck on our sweet get ups, went and got pedicures then headed to TRIO for dinner. It was so nice to relax, talk and have nothing to worry about. We then continued on up to Midway to check into our hotel. Zermott was a cute little resort to stay at. We got all settled in our room and realized we didn’t have any tooth paste we hoped in the car are headed into town. The first gas station didn’t have any but they had caramel popcorn that looked to die for…We drove to the other gas station across the street they had what we were looking for but no awesome Carmel popcorn. So we got our toothpaste and headed back to get the yummy popcorn. Did I mention this was 10:45pm. We got back to our hotel ate our popcorn while watching Legally Blonde. We couldn’t be up to late we had a race to RUN!

We were rip roaring ready to go until we realized how COLD it was. 6.2 mile mud run here we come. We were able to run with the Devil she was pretty cute. Aren’t our outfits cute. These two guys are awesome they are the ones that put the whole event together. There were different obstacles along the way. The first one at mile 1 wasn’t an obstacle but it was cold, they had snow machines on…BURRR!! The first real one was 4 ft. hay bails you had to jump over those suckers were huge there were about 6 different sets to get over. Mile 2 was black tunnels to crawl in. There were 3 different ones about 20 ft. long. Mile 3 was where it got fun. They had a fire hose spraying the climb walls they were 5, or 7 ft. walls to climb over. We were in it for all so big walls here we come…There was about 6 inches of mud you would sink in to get your feet out to get over the wall was rough… Mile 4 was tire runs easy as pie. Mile 5 was the surprise obstacle curtsey of Soldier Hollow and deer creek. The trail ran along the shore line, this time of year is about a foot of swampy nasty stagnant mud…You couldn’t get through it fast enough. Mile 6 was the worlds largest slip in slide…Note to self if you have been running in mud there are little rocks that are watered down so when you jump down a slide like that don’t go head and arms first it will hurt. The finish line was a huge mud pit. You had to go under the flags no exceptions. We were cute as could be our hubby’s drove up to meet us at the finish. They had showers that I guess were freezing so we hoped in the car and headed to the hotel to get showered. As we were walking out a guy from Salt lake running company was there collecting shoes to donate. They were dirty but still could be put to good use so we left our there along with our socks in the garbage. We got showered and ready for the day and headed back into town for lunch. We found a cute pizza place to eat and then headed home. It was a nice break but fun to be with Nick and Friends.
