The evening after Alexis left I felt like I had been hit by a truck. My body completely shut down on me, I got a fever, cough, stuffed up nose, the chills, etc. The only other obligation I had before the Warrior Dash was to take homecoming photos for a super nice (now friend) army wife on the other side of the island. That was Thursday, so I slept all Tuesday evening and all of Wednesday. I didn't sleep Wednesday night =/ but their pictures turned out wonderful... I slept all Thursday evening and Friday... lots of sleeping, absolutely NO exercising. Which is why come Friday night & Saturday morning I was a bit nervous about the 5k Warrior Dash!

| We had a lot of pre-race fun... goofing off, having people laugh at our team shirts. =) |
 |
| Then our 1:30pm race time rolled around and we were off to become WARRIORS! |
 |
| Post race were were covered in mud, so we did what any normal person would do- jumped into the lake! |
 |
| After getting as much mud off as the lake would allow we chowed down. |

Most of these pictures came from Jennifer, she was far more brave than I was taking her camera along for the race. I was mainly just focused on finishing... I jogged really slow the entire time while they walked then ran, walked then ran, and we all finished about the same!
My official stats were as follows:
- Race time- 44:15.75
- 14:39min mile
- 3,425 out of 7,992
- 498 out of 1,825 females ages 20-29
Not too bad for being sick and not training properly for the prior 2wks!
