Left to right: a bone, a flower, the Union Jack, a smiley, a Wario-style 'stache.
The Camp Pendleton (World Famous) Muuuuuud Ruuuuuun started bright and early at 9:00. We arrived much brighter and earlier at 6:30 because we are abnormally bright. It didn't feel great after the SAIC zoo event the night before, but hey, snakes on a plane.


The course included slimy hills, walls and tires, a sizeable lake crossing, and knee-deep mud pits (some for running, some for crawling). I was fairly certain I'd see Martin Sheen eerily rising from one of the pits, but maybe it just happened on Saturday.


Most teams stayed together. Being jerks, KO and I set our own pace. We got to the finish at 1:01:45 (he beat me).

As a team we we finished in 1:11:38, 13th of 151 (0:57:18), overall 41st of 285 (0:51:15) .

I am convinced the interesting smell wafting from the mud pits was urine.


Yo SFS, why'd you paint a smiley on your face?


Holy crap! What's Connie's body fat percentage these days??? She's my new idol!

Why? | Building a Beg-Meil

 Deciding to build a boat is a sign you're planting your feet firmly in the "journey" camp, not the "destination" camp. Which is to say, if you're interested in going boating, there are plenty of easier and faster ways to get on the water. But, I'm up for the journey, and under no illusions about how long this particular journey might take. None of that really answers the question of why I want to build a boat.
