Biggest Loser Off Road Challenge in Marseilles, IL

WOW…what a fun time this was and what a challenge.  This is the first obstacle course mud run that I’ve done and thank goodness I had a great team to support me.  My team Healthy Habits rocked this challenge.  It consisted of climbing under barbed wire which was a mud pit, crawling up and down crueling hills sloppy with mud, climbing up and over wooden walls, hoisting buckets filled with cement, dragging cement blocks around a track, hopping up hills with a tight band around your ankles, and the final obstacle was jumping over a fire pit.  I think the most impressive part of this challenge was not that we made it thru but the help and support that everyone gave each other to get the obstacle done.  At one wall I just coulndt see myself being able to do it.  I started to walk around the challenge when a woman I didnt even know said…oh no..we’ll help you. Sure enough her two male friends helped me up and over that wall….from that point on I knew I was in good hands. All the bruises, cuts, and scraps I wear proudly as I know I worked hard for them and did something I never thought I could or would do.
