This Saturday I compete in my 1st Warrior Dash, which will be held June 4th & 5th in Logan, Ohio. The Warrior Dash is 3.10 hellish miles of running and overcoming multiple man-made obstacles while dealing the elements. The run Saturday should be especially trying with temps expected to be near 92 degrees with Isolated thunder storms.
This latest endeavor was the result of a challenge laid down by me to my little brother back in late 2010 around the time I completed my first 5k run with my son. Since mid-April, I've been training off and on up to a 4 mile circuit of walking & jogging. This week is the last week of preparation and am feeling pretty good about my training, even though I know I won't be setting any records, other than my own. The great thing is I will be doing this with my younger brother, who is a seasoned runner with several 5ks under his belt. I look forward to the camaraderie and the competition.
Check back for pics and video which will be posted here. JF
