-
No team. I'm just trying to make it to the end I'm in the slowest category

Plus it looks like a real stupid thing to do which I tend to gravitate towards

i just need to make sure nothing with this damn Strike will effect my schedule i have july open for the most part because i cant make plans till they decied 1 if the union is going on strike and 2 what support i will need to provide. last i saw im off on the weekends still but thats not set in stone yet so who knows. Looks like fun though and i would love to give you some comp for the slowest time lol.

I would sugest 2 of each one to destroy in the mud another to wear proudly. maybe even spice it up with the club logo on the sleeve.
-
T- I'm totally good with them. **^bana0I'll take 3 please size Large. Lemme know coin you need.
No. they dont register teams just individuals, so go on their site, I signed up for 8:30am in the mens over 15 minute per mile category, the slowest there. I think they keep folks to the time categories, not the gender ones
-
cool i will try to register for the same time and see if i can get my boy in GA to hook us up and get them prof printed just need to see what his min batch is and how much they would be. if he cant cut us a deal i will make them myself with iron on. it will be funny seeing a bunch of people leaving the starting line with mug man jerseys on lol.
-
Very cool!!!!!
-
i agree i mean worst case i need to get 50 shirts to make it worth him running them but i know you know how to move some shirts.
-

Are you kidding?!
5K COURSE DESCRIPTION
MILE 1
Runners will start in beautiful Belmont Plateau in Fairmount park and begin running around the local softball and baseball fields. After trudging through the water crossing, runners will start through the trails on a wide gravel path.
MILE 2
Here you will begin the true trails and run in a shady, secluded area. Occasional building and the sounds of the road is the only thing to remind you that you are still in the city. The 5k runners will make a left at the recycling center road and proceed toward the nursery.
MILE 3
5k runners will enjoy a couple of fast hills to stretch their legs before coming back through the mud and to the finish!
10K COURSE DESCRIPTION
MILE 1
Runners will start in beautiful Belmont Plateau in Fairmount park and begin running around the local softball and baseball fields. After trudging through the water crossing, runners will start through the trails on a wide gravel path.
MILE 2
Here you will begin the true trails and run in a shady, secluded area. Occasional buildings and the sounds of the road are the only things to remind you that you are still in the city. The 5k runners will make a left at the recycling center road and proceed toward the nursery.
MILE 3
Mile 3 for our 10kers begins a nice uphill to keep the legs warm before you appear behind home plate. Once around the baseball field you will head along Chamounix Dr toward the youth hostel. This section after the hostel is the best part about the Philadelphia course. You will proceed down single track through a secluded forest with strange steps, a creek crossing and a very unexpected bridge.
MILE 4
Once appearing out of the forest, 10k runners will follow the paths along Chamounix, make a u-turn and head down Ford Rd toward the recycling center.
MILE 5
10k runners will rejoin with their 5k friends and proceed toward the local nursery and back into the trail system. There are a couple of great hills along gravel roads as you weave your way through some fast stretches.
MILE 6
As both 10k and 5k racers finish up the trails, they will reappear in the main site, finish the remaining obstacles, head through the mud pit and ultimately the finish line.
Yeah, I'd be "finished" all right..............
-
KV, I will finish this race just as easy-peasey as you will back that trailer right in perfectly into your spot at Belleplaine. I have complete confidence in ya thumpup)- thumpup)- thumpup)-
I'm being trained by the elite Magee Rehab team, which is as good as Jackwagen teaching me how to do pushrod seals thumpup)-
-
Well, I think you'll be the winner in this one, because all I can say is thank goodness for pull through sites.. #@rofl3
-
KV, I'll say we show that trailer who OWNS it and back it that puppy right in, thumpup)- I'll help direct ya! 2@@cool

I keep looking at these videos looking for a middle aged dude recovering from a stroke and I don't appear to see one, just drunken 20 to 30 year olds.... Hmmmmmm... :confused04:;
-
Hey Muggy, with a couple of beers you too could feel like a 20 or 30 year old &^beer& byeby.,
-
Muggy is in training... I don't think he's allowed beer as part of his training regimen. =wink=
-
Correct, Ms KV. Nothing but water for the last 172 loooooooong days. bawlin)0
Major thanks to Glenifer, ( Jen, Glens wife) who will at least start out with me on the starting line and assist Mrs Muggy pulling my wretched body from the mud pit. =+grouphu9
