Since many of you know I have a thing about being dirty, my next scheduled race might surprise you. It’s called The Jailbreak, and it’s 3.8 miles through military-style obstacles, urban wasteland, and lots of MUD. Yep, I’m going to get really, really dirty, and I’m OK with that. It’s a stretch assignment. Therapy, if you will. It will be good for me, and a lot of fun!

Our friends Jon, Amber, Lacy, and Amie plan to brave it with us. Due to the thousands of participants and the many obstacles, the runners go in waves every half hour or so. We’re in the first wave at 9:00am. Our brother-in-law Phillip is putting together another group that will run that afternoon. If you want in, sign up NOW because it’s almost full.

Even better, this race benefits Sower of Seeds, an organization like Water is Basic that drills clean water wells in India. According to the race website, they can drill one well for every 1000 participants.
