Ran 4 miles in the freezing cold rain then ran the Woods Cross Memorial Day 5k with Gracie.  Super easy pace but it was fun to run with her.

Felt like I was running in quick sand.  No energy in my legs at all.

I lost the battle the last 2 days but won today.  Forced myself out the door and got a decent run in.

Dirty Dash 5K

Drove the entire clan up to Soldier Hollow for the Dirty Dash.  I didn't really treat it as a race.  I just tried to have a good time.  We were in the first wave so it was not quite as muddy as it should have been.  When the race started, I went out with the leaders up the mud hill.  A group of 5 was ahead of me and I just kind of hung back. After the first couple of hay bails, I decided that I just wanted to have fun so I stopped and waited for Becky and ran the rest of the race with her.  The hay bails were fun once I got the hang of them.  The walls weren't too bad except I struggled on the last one because the mud was pretty thick at the bottom and I couldn't push off.  The pipes were a pain and the tires lasted a lot longer than I thought necessary.  My favorite part was the net that we had to climb.  My kids and I have been watching Ninja Warrior so I knew exactly how to attack it and executed the flip over the top perfectly.  After we finished, we waited around for a couple of hours so the kids could to the Piglet Plunge.  This included the run up the first muddy hill, a good little climb to the water slide, down the slide and through the giant mud puddle.  I ran most of it with a 6 year old on my shoulders so it was a good workout.  I didn't feel muddy enough so I tackled Ashton before we got to the finish line just to make sure we got our money's worth.  It was fun for all of us but not much serious running.
