Dallas Spartan Beast

5 down, 1 to go! Here we were in Dallas ready to get this last race done with for the year and what do you know...it decided to MONSOON in the state of Texas! It was CRAZY bad out there. So much so that they had to alter the course and we were in the line to get in to the race for 5 HOURS! It only took us 3:53:20 to do the whole 10.15 miles of the race! To say we were pissed was an understatement. We were sure we would not make it before they quit letting folks on the course! Once again we finished this race when it was dark, but when we finished...it was SO worth it! As you can see below, we were a bit pissy...well, maybe not!

I made sure to take a picture of my tracker since they did not have me as finishing in the last 2 races I did! But, they fixed it before I got my last medal and the double medal... you better believe it!This course was so MUDDY! And with it being on Halloween, it was interesting to say the least...we saw a man in a creepy clown costume!! You can view the route we took here. 

 

Check out that Double medal :) It was totally worth it!

 

 

 

It got dark fast, but we made it. This was a year in the making, well more like the months of April, May, and October! We forged through fire, ice, mud, dirt, dust, you name it...we probably went through it! But, I wouldn't trade it for the world! I love these races and hope to do more in the future :) Here's to the next muddy Spartan. Until then...
