A bunch of us drove up to Long Beach this past weekend for the Beach Palooza. Let me tell you, running on soft sand majorly sucks. Not that I really trained hard for this 5K obstacle course but we did want to make an attempt to complete it in a somewhat reasonable time. The last 5k obstacle course we did was Warrior Dash where we clocked in a slow time due to the fact that everyone waited for everyone. Haha. This time around we wanted to make an attempt. I think my “training” went as far as running maybe once a month on average. The most I had run in one duration was roughly 2.7 miles. But man, running on the soft sand was so hard! I couldn’t do it for very long at all. And the obstacles were so far apart and then they weren’t even as cool or fun. Boo. I gave Beach Palooza pretty bad reviews in their survey, haha. But it was still fun to just hang out with everyone, get a pineapple hat, and t-shirt.
I also bumped into 2 people from high school that I haven’t seen since…high school. Random!
I should probably keep up with some running but its going to be hard.
And I’m really only blogging about this so I can look back and remember what I did in 2011. Haha.
