Camp Pendleton Mud Run 2010

Saturday morning Jono ran in the Camp Pendleton Mud Run. We slept over at Jono's parent's house the night before because we had to meet up with some people from EY at Target on Alicia in Mission Viejo. We drove down to Camp Pendleton with Kim Tobler, his son Chris, and Cason and Marie Green. When we got there the mud-runners got checked in, safety-pinned their numbers on their shirts and stretched for the run.

The Mud Run is a 10K run with hills, tire obstacles, river crossings, two 5-foot walls with mud on both sides, tunnel crawl, a slippery hill climb and a final 30-foot mud pit where they had to army crawl their way through the mud. As you can see from the pictures everyone got muddy.


Here is a video of the start of the race. As you can see from the video there were TONS of people running and some teams who decided to dress up. The Wizard of Oz crew was my favorite. There is also a green dragon in the crowd, see if you can spot it!

And the big finish!


It was a fun experience and I am proud Jono wanted to do it and that he finished. Good job babe!
