Anytime I run, I am winded in about 3 minutes. I end up walking most of the way and feel like I shorted myself. Knowing this, I had no idea what to expect of myself when I signed up for the Dirty Girl Mud Run. I read the course description, testimonials and FAQ’s, yet I still had no idea how I would fair!
Check out the P.M.S. obstacle, this is the first one I attempted! Yes, I brought my phone so I could take photos, it was in a ziploc bag.
I don’t remember the name of this one, but I had to climb up the wooden pyramid using the rope, then go under a super low clearance. In the mud. I survived!
There were a total of 10 obstacles, one of which I skipped. Once we reached the finish line, we had to run through a mud pit for the finale!
I was probably the cleanest runner there! My pants are super wet and muddy, you can’t really tell since they are black. There is also a little mud in my hair! I definitely wasn’t trying to get like these “dirty girls”…

This is awesome! I wish I had the guts and strength to do it!
WTG! You look so proud at the finish line!! It looks like a fun race and for a great cause.
congrats on completing this. i am thinking of doing one soon as well. hope i finish!!
Thanks for the inspiration! I’ve been considering doing the Delaware Mud Run, which like your run, supports cancer research but in this case. leukemia research (my son is a leukemia survivor). I watched the race three years ago when my son was an honored guest, and thought it looked like so much fun! But sadly, I “chickened out” last year because I’m “not a runner” – you have inspired me to throw that fear away and just do it! Mud Run here I come! Somehow, I don’t think I’ll remain as clean as you did, especially since my now 14 year old wants to run the race with me. I can see it now – he’ll be throwing mud my way.
Go for it! The best part for me was that it was not a race, so I could go at my own pace. It was a blast!
