Saturday Rugged Maniac and El Indio!

Saturday Beth had planned to do the Rugged Maniac 5k mud run. That involves going through icky mud, obstacles, barbed wire, fire, slippy slides and other "fun" stuff! Of course I went too. But no, this Buttfreckle didn't meet with mud at all. I hung out with Leslie's husband Doug, in my baggy in his sweatshirt pocket.

JWB and one of the shirts!
I look better with this I think! 

Here is a link  Rugged Maniac 5k photos, taken by the local Gainesville newspaper, the Gainesville Sun. Beth isn't in any of them but gives a good idea of the obstacles and mud!

After the event, we all went to El Indio, a Mexican fast food restaurant. Beth ordered a soft taco, with rice and beans combo. 
What do we have here?
Looks good but I don't think I'm going to try...


What could this be?
Looks like rice and beans! Perhaps I should taste....

We had an awesome time except Beth had issues with one obstacle, Leslie called the "slippy slide". One goes done this water thing, hits a bump then goes in water. Then it's go through some red/white bobby things (the best example is in the Gainesville Sun photos link). Beth hit the bump and went totally underwater. I missed this but heard she wasn't a happy camper. Forgot to mention it was a bit cold too! Not many photos today but check back again for my next adventure!
