There's no shame in walking.

That race sounds like fun. I've been wanting to do the Camp Pendleton Mud Run. There aren't many 10k's that I would travel to, but that's definetely one of them.

I have been meaning to do one of the mud runs. They seem to fill up the day registration opens, so whenever I think about doing it, it is way too late.

THe race I did used to be part of the race series. The Marines do a good job with support on the races.

I may try and do one next year.

Of course another option for a military-style race would be the Bataan Memorial Death March.

All the downhill running wasn't as bad as some people had said it would be except that a couple miles from the bottom of the canyon my back started hurting a bit, but that went away when the course leveled out.

All in all, it was a pretty cool marathon. Y'all should try it some time.
Great job Sea Chicken! I had a great first half, but just about everything that could go wrong did go wrong in the second half. Oh well, I'll live on to run another day. Very pretty course though.
