Jake and I competed in the Cahoots Duo Challenge last week (a 5k mud run with obstacles). It was a blast!
We decided to dress like the Hunger Games characters in training so we ordered these awesome shirts online - the same shirts Katniss and Peeta wore while training for the games. We figured since they won those games, our shirts might give us a little advantage to winning these games ;-)
A few of the obstacles included mud pits, balance beams, a 10 foot wall to climb over, tires to run through with your leg tied to your partner's, a cargo net to climb over, etc. You got more points for teamwork, costumes, and overall spirit.
Our absolute favorite obstacle... the zip-line. We stood in line long enough to watch 99% of people fail...
Most people looked like this...
And most didn't even make it halfway. But Jake and I? We rocked that zip-line! Even got an ovation at the end.
Although the event wasn't organized super well, we enjoyed the challenge and the adventure together.
And we'll probably come back again next year - check out these stellar medals we got at the end! Ya, they are magnetic and attach to your partners. So sweet.
Well done!
