San Diego and the WORLD FAMOUS MUD RUN

Scott and I had the opportunity to fly to San Diego with some friends, Jason & Kendra Karren, to run a race called the Camp Pendleton Mud Run. It's a 6.2 mile obstacle course running up and down hills, through tunnels, over walls, through a lake, and through mud pits. It was such a blast. We got there a couple of days early so we could enjoy San Diego before the race. Here's our trip.

Scott saw this place on the Food Network on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives just two weeks before our trip. He remembered where it was and we actually found it. It was in Ocean Beach and it lived up to our expectations.

The whole wall was full of license plates. It was a little surfing joint.

Here's Scott going after his burger....1st bite.

Look how monsterous that burger is. This is Jason Karren.

Here's a dude eating at Hodads while we were there. Kendra had to get a photo....I thought it was a good idea too. I mean...look at that hair!!!

Here's the Hodad van.

We visited the San Diego temple while we were there.

This is the McKnight family who we stayed with. They use to be in our ward here in Highlands Ranch. They were sooooo good to us.

Here's the agenda for the day.

This is where we ate.

Here's Mission beach.

Scott and I LOVE to throw the football around at the beach.

Here's Jason and Scott playin' catch.

This is Jason and Kendra...we had a blast with them.

I tried to surf a short board...I wasn't very good. It's been too long.

Scott, Jason, & Don (Kendra's cousin's husband).

Here's them and their boards.

Here's Scott, Don, and Jason heading out to catch some waves.

We tried to get a photo of just us and we accidentally included the bum in the background...looks comfy.

Here's the pre-race photo of us. We were pumped.

Here's another pre-race photo. Dana and Ryan met up with us at the race.

Here's a little glimps of what the race was like. Here's Dana during one part of the race. She's the one the sargent is yelling at. She's wearing a blue tank top.

Post Race Photo.

Here's our whole group. Dana, Ryan, Me, Scott, Jason, & Kendra

After the race we ate at In-N-Out. We had such a great time. Hope you all can race next year. Put it on your calenders. Sign ups are January 1 and will probably close in 2 days so sign up fast.
