Spectator-ing, and Muzak

Last weekend was the first in a month that I didn't do a race.  However, I still went to watch one (I can't stay away!).  A couple of friends competed in the Muddy Buddy race on Sunday, which is a 5 mile-ish duathlon/obstacle course/good-excuse-to-get-covered-in-mud-from-head-to-toe race.  My friend actually asked me to team up with her many months ago, but I turned her down--the mud just didn't sound that appealing to me at the time, and I can't remember the last time I rode a bike.  However, watching everyone have so much fun (minus the finish-line pukers--I don't think they were enjoying the morning), I may have changed my opinion.  Perhaps I'll try it next year.

Here's the first male team:

They held hands across the finish line. Absolutely. Adorable. Especially since they were manly-looking men.

And the first female team:

 Also adorable!

There were also lots of couples, who were adorable. Adorable-ness all around! :-p I didn't get a picture of my friends (I had to leave and go to work and they started in a later wave), but they finished and sounded like they had a lot of fun, so hooray for them!
