Counting Down To Muddy Buddy

Just over a week to go until my next race, and it’s going to be a classic! The Muddy Buddy Ride & Run in Richmond, Virginia next weekend is billed as:
a unique trail running and mountain biking adventure race, sure to be fun and challenging for everyone.
A good friend took part in the race last year and on his return soon talked me into signing up for the 2008 race. Thanks Tim! My “buddy” for the race is wife Ally and naturally we’re entered in the Coed competition; combined age group 76-85.
Muddy Buddy features a 6-7 mile course and 5 obstacles. At the start of the race, one team member will run (me) and one will ride the bike (Ally). At the 1st obstacle, the rider will drop the bike, complete the obstacle, and begin running. The runner will arrive, complete the obstacle, find their bike, and begin riding. Teams continue leapfrogging each other through the entire course. At the end of the race, racers will crawl through the infamous Mud Pit crossing the finish line together! Sounds like fun huh? I can’t wait…

Yeah, thanks Thomas, looking forward to it. Makes a change from a typical 5k on the road…
Will be writing all about it Sunday night/Monday morning.
