Who doesn't love a good 5K race? They're an "easy" 3.2 miles that you can walk/jog/be a psycho and sprint while getting to better know a community and spend time with friends and family while crossing a finish line. And usually, these 5K runs are attached to a charity or good cause.

At least I figure you do, because I did, too. Here were my top two questions that I had that were answered on the organization's website. Why this race?

We love women! And this run is all about celebrating women in all their glorious forms. We want to bring you an experience where you feel like a Princess even while crawling through the mud. This is girl power, best friend bonding, “wow, I never thought I’d be able to do that” memory-making day out for women. - muddyprincess.com

What are these "obstacles?"

To bring you the most fun day out in the mud, we have designed a variety of obstacles to keep you challenged and entertained. You can expect to:

 

  • Wade, crawl or paddle through water and mud
  • Climb ropes, nets, and tire towers
  • Traverse across balance obstacles
  • Slide, glide, shimmy, and roll down poles, small hills, and embankments
  • Move over, though, or under poles, climbing frames, and barrels - muddyprincess.com

There is no time limit, and you are encouraged to dress up like a princess or wear matching outfits with your group and most importantly, have fun! This sounds like a blast, and your husband, boyfriend, kids, friends and relatives can come out and support you, too ... or maybe just make this a girl's day. Have a great race!
