We spent this past weekend in Copper Mountain with some great friends to participate in the Colorado 1st Annual Warrior Dash. It's a 3.26 mile run with several 'extreme' obstacles to include hay bale climb, tire run, cargo net climb and of course the dreaded mud pit crawl...just to name a few. The race climbs up the mountain to about 10, 500 feet at the highest - combined with all the obstacles - it was a real challenge - for me anyway! My only goal was to finish - and I did in 57 mins! To think that only 5 short months ago I could barely walk and was having so much problems with vertigo and my vision - this is such a great accomplishment! This just goes to show that MS does not rule my life...I rule my life! HoooRahhh! Can't wait for next year!

We made it! Now it's only a half mile to go - but 3 hard obstacles
remain! Can we make it??
YES!!! At the finish line - we all made it through - some a little
more beaten up and bruised than others - but all in all a good
time was had by all!
