Laura’s Dirty Weekend Plans [VIDEO]
I'm getting DIRTY this weekend!
No, not like that. I'll be at Welch Village, south of the Twin Cities, participating in my first ever Dirty Girl Mud Run & Obstacle Course. It's a 5k course with plenty of obstacles. Obstacles that include a lot of mud.
But it's not a "race" in the traditional sense. It is an un-timed race (oxymoron?) where teams are encouraged.
I've never done any of the obstacle-type races, but there are quite a few out there. Tough Mudder and the Warrior Dash are the two most popular that I've heard of. But this one is girls only--and a portion of the money from the will go to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Last year $50,000 was raised for the cause. Their goal for 2012 is to raise at least $250,000.
Here's an Dirty Girl race from last year like the one I'll be doing tomorrow:
Stay tuned, I'll have plenty of dirty pictures to show off on Monday!
