Conquer the Gauntlet

 Earlier this year we talked about what fun race we wanted to do together and decided on Conquer the Gauntlet which is Craig's favorite. And Kristi decided to join us!
 My brother Nathan and wife Dayleigh decided to join us too!!
 And a couple more familiar faces!
 Conquer the Gauntlet is a 4 mile with 25 obstacles. It is a tough run and you can't do all the obstacles on your own. It is a team effort. This was the first obstacle. The last time we did this race I remember this obstacle because it scared me the most. You definitely have to have some trust in the person at the top who is helping to pull you up!
 
Wheel it in and pull it out!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 After climbing this wall we were at the highest place in Tulsa County.
 And this was the view!!! 
At that point we had to grab a log and walk down the hillside and then back up it. 
 

Finally after running half of the race we hit some water! So cold and yucky yet so refreshing! 
 
The inverted monkey bars. So hard almost impossible for me!
 Good thing there is a pit of water to fall in when the attempt fails.
 At the very end of the race is the 5 walls of fury!! Craig made it over every one!
 And this was the very last obstacle! 
 We may not have "conquered" the gauntlet exactly but we made it through!! 
And had a fun time doing it together!

Those pictures are awesome. It was like having your own personal photographer with you during the race.
