Run Amuck!

Hey NOVA Runners,

I'm running Run Amuck on Saturday, June 16th at the Marine Corps Base in Quantico, VA if you'd like to join me.  The length is approximately 3.5 miles and consists of 14 obstacles that are really not scary (though they describe it as strenuous), including "two punishing PT stations and two messy, muddy, murky mud pits, tough tire dash, strenuous spiderweb, backbreaking barbed wire crawl, tiring 20-foot pipe slither, elaborate A-frame climb, a cruel clamber up a cargo net and the forceful fire truck spray. The mud puts spans 60 feet in width, at least three feet deep and extend between 100 and 180 feet long. New obstacles introduced in 2012 include the gladiator hit n' run and the ammo can scramble."  The best part is the fire hose at the end because you can wash all the mud off!  I've run it once before and it was super fun, so I hope you can join me.

It's still open for registration, if you're interested.

Happy running!
