We Raised a Ruckus!!!

This Saturday, the Marshfield Fairground was transformed into a 4 mile military style obstacle course known as the RUCKUS!!! For all of you 5K fans, this is a race you should consider next time it comes around. My whole family, including AJ and Jack, ran in different waves this weekend and we all had a blast! The first half of the race was a trail run with lots of obstacles and even more MUD. I actually fell face first into a big mud pit coming out of a tunnel! The second half was all about climbing high and hanging out! Monkey bars, rope walls, ranger bars, and an 8 ft wall were just some of the obstacles to conquer before crossing the finish line.





After Jim and I finished our waves, the kids headed over to the Mini-Ruckus, complete with walls, tunnels, and even a mud pit. They were so proud of themselves and went through the course at least 4 times!



We finished out our run with a free Harpoon, what true runner doesn't end a race with a beer???


Thank you Ruckus for an unbelievable day and the best birthday in a long time!
