Zombies Attack - Continued

Although it was called a Zombie Mud Run,

there were actually several obstacles on the course.

While Todd and I couldn't see all of them,

one was fairly close to the finish line.

So what are a couple of parents to do when their kids are running,

go cheer them on of course.

 

This obstacle was actually 4 walls of differing heights.

The first was probably 6' tall, the second about 4',

the third 5', and the last about 3'.

 

I don't know about you, but after running over a mile,

this seems like it would be a little tiring.

 

No problem for my kids,

they flew right over them.

In fact, the only thing that slowed them

down were other people, and the fact that

zombies were waiting at the end of the obstacle.

 

Austin jumping over the last wall.

Those zombies weren't getting Austin's lives (flags).

The 6' tall wall didn't pose a problem for my short little princess.

 

The guys behind her were amazed at how easy she got over the wall.

Or maybe, they might be staring at her butt.

Lexx zig zagged her way through all the zombies.

Like I said, Todd and I couldn't get to all the obstacles.

We did happen to also get the kids pictures at the finish line.

Lexx is in this picture.

That's her head poking out of the hillarious guys shoulder.

This picture cracks me up!

5k and 7 obstacles and mud...no problem.

A little dirty, but none the worse for wear.

Austin had so much energy at the end,

he did Gangham style coming over the finish line.

Only Austin!

Way to go Austin!

Everyone received a shirt and a beer (if you were over 21).

Austin took full advantage of that.

I think that's mainly why he ran the race.

I tried to get a picture that showed how popular the event was,

but I couldn't get a good angle.

 

There were probably over 1,000 people that participated in all the heats.

It was great fun, especially right before Halloween.

 

The kids are already talking about doing it next year,

but they're not sure if they want to run it or be zombies!

 

So what do you think?

Would you participate in this, or have you done anything similar?
