I wanted to do the Warrior Dash SO BADLY this year, but forces beyond my control (ie: my husband's employer) have conspired against me to make childcare next to impossible. And there is no way I am traveling on my own with my two hellions, I mean wonderful miracles. As consolation, I have signed up for the Spartan Sprint here in Calgary, and my 5 year old is doing the Spartan Kids race, too. :D

Spartan race is basically the same thing anyway, isn't it?

A bit shorter and fewer obstacles, if memory serves. I'm really mostly sad that I can't come to Vancouver to do the Warrior Dash. The coast is "home" to me.

I also did WD last year. There is probably a race report somewhere on it. ;)

I LOVED IT.
When your legs get tired, run with your heart.

Overcome the notion that you must be regular. It robs you of your chance to be extraordinary.
