On Saturday, August 11th, Hairpin participated in his first Warrior Dash.
A Warrior Dash is a running series. Created by Red Frog Events, based out of Chicago, Warrior Dash is an extreme 5-6K running race with obstacles, including jumping over fire and crawling through mud with barbed wire hung overhead. Each Warrior Dash consists of at least 12 obstacles along a 5-6K course followed by a festival complete with live music, turkey legs and beer steins among other interactive elements. Each participant is individually timed and broken into 12 competitive age divisions. It is the first time ever Hairpin has been happy with running a 59 minute 5K, specially since he beat his much younger colleagues in the process!
Here they are before the race...
Here they are before the race...
It starts getting a little messy
but the warrior perseveres!
Through the fire..
Under the barbed wire
Getting messy.
Finishing strong.
Warrior...
with dancing skills!!!
Congratulations Hairpin!
