one fine muddy mess.....

my daughter is not afraid to get dirty

and

neither is her boyfriend

they ran in madison's mudrun on saturday 

along with over one thousand other runners.

she was having a blast with the water hose

some of the runners

{taking halloween seriously} 

came dressed up in amazing outfits

this was the farmer, his wife and their chickens

he finished before she did

and then came back 

and ran up the hill to the finish line with her 

isn't that sweet

this is the boyfriend 

flying through the mud pit at lightning speed. 

i'm not sure how i even got his photo. 

and yes, technically this photo should be up at the beginning with my daughter's mud photo, 

but blogger is being a bit grouchy this morning.

oh and in case you're a runner and are into statistics

she was 23rd out of 257 runners in the 20-29 female age group

47th out of 625 in the all female category

and

overall

she placed 171 out of 1063 runners

~

he was 16th out of 174 runners in the 20-29 male age group

27th out of 492 in the all male category

and

overall

he placed 34 out of 1063 runners

i think that's right.

she told me lots of numbers over the phone and i scribbled them all over an index card

and wrote them with a bold sharpie. so at least i know i'm close if not exact.

hey, i'm not perfect.
