Yesterday Sean posted about the famous Camp Pendleton Mud Run and a number of you have signed up for an Intrepid team (or two!). But that’s all the way in June and maybe you want to measure your progress before then. You’re in luck! There’s another similar event called the Warrior Dash coming in April. It’s a shorter course than the Mud Run (3.08 miles vs. 10K), so it’ll definitely serve as a good warmup.

What the hell is Warrior Dash?
Warrior Dash is the ultimate event for thrill-seeking athletes. This running series is held on some of the nation’s most demanding and unique terrain. Participants will conquer extreme obstacles and celebrate their feat with music, beer, warrior helmets and muddy shorts.

What do I get?

1. Free beer.
2. Warrior helmet (pictured).
3. Bad-ass Warrior Dash t-shirt (pictured).
4. Custom Warrior finisher medal (pictured).
5. Live music.
6. Post-race food and water.
7. The pride that comes along with being a Warrior.
8. Warrior race bib.
9. Steel warrior helmet age division prizes.
10. The craziest frickin’ day of your life.

While the Warrior Dash doesn’t have a team category, as long as we all register in the same heat there will be nothing preventing us from running it together. Costumes are encouraged and you even get a warrior helmet just for entering! Sean and Ruth have said they’re interested. Any other takers? Feel free to post your name on the whiteboard in the gym!
