Capitol Craze 5k Obstacle Run

This weekend, I ran* in the Capitol Craze 5k Obstacle Run. It was amazingly muddy, wet, and cold. I can't remember having a better time running. If waterslides, mud pits, and ridiculously steep hills in 30-degree weather are your idea of fun, you should have been there.

I loved it.

Here's a picture that does a pretty good job of capturing how it felt. The granola bar was delicious, but a little muddy-tasting.

*By "ran," I mean "jogged as quickly as a fat, out-of-shape IT guy can."
