seventeen syllables about the humor, inspiration, and pain in running

Tough Mudder (Seattle 2012)

I started out strong
Body flew over the wall
Adrenaline push

Split my pants in half
Teammate did quick stitching job
Ass still in the wind

Couldn’t do it all
Trained hard but not hard enough
Body beaten blue

Friends kept me going
Team was an inspiration
GeekWire Mudders

Bucket list shorter
Conquered Seattle Mudder
Vancouver is next
