RACE!!!

So my brother Bryan talked me into doing a trail run/Mtn. bike race as a team with him. So me thinking since I ran 5-6 miles a couple of days a week, I thought a 4 miles trail run wouldn't be to bad at all and then thought I better get some Mtn. biking in for the 10 mile Mtn. bike part of it. Well low and behold this race was a hole lot more then just trail running. We did a 2 miles loop for the run and a 5 mile loop for the bike and we each had to do them twice in a row. We ran through rivers, jumped/crawled under trees, over fences and logs. The run was actually pretty fun, but coming out of the water my shoes felt like they weighed 20lbs. The bike part of it was fun at the beginning until we got to the sandy hill and mile long stretch of just sand. Basically you just spun in the sand, and if you tried to ride in it you used all your energy staying in one place, so it seemed. Once again most of my pictures didn't download, but here are some that did.
