Friday night was spent with my dad and step-mother who I haven't seen since last year (they live in Edmonton) so was very happy to be able to celebrate a Father's Day *with* my Dad!
Saturday morning I was ready and waiting to go to Spartan. My heat wasn't until 2pm, but we were told to get there 2 hours early and it was about an hour away. I drove up with my two neighbours and one of their friends.
Beckett, stealing my foam roller after a quick roll before I get going. I've caught Carson sleeping with my foam roller some nights! 
Feeling icky about myself, so I took my picture and posted it on ETF (Eat The Food) group on facebook.
Don't mind the dirty background - our room tends to be where everyone gets dressed and undressed, so there are random items of clothing strewn about. That's my 3 year old's blankie in the doorway :)
Here we are, in line. I will say that the spartan race is fairly
unorganized when it comes to signing up/getting waivers/registering the
day of etc...
Here is before the race:
And youch - my only real injury (beside lots of bruises and scrapes) I got rope burn on two of my fingers. It hurt like a biatch, but was happy that was the worst of it.
Try shaving your legs after an obstacle course - tricky!
Today - finger is doing MUCH better. I even got out to crossfit this morning.

You took on a huge challenge and conquered it! Now that is what I call a victory.
Owie! Good on you for completing this race! I can't imagine doing something like that.
You ladies sure know how to make a girl feel quite wonderful. Thank you!
You are like, SO brave! And strong! And FIERCE!
I would never attempt this...like, ever.
And I'm actually kind of embarrassed to admit that it is because I don't want to break a nail. :/
Congrats, well done! You rock! My son did the one here a few weeks ago, it was tough.
