Dallas Tough Mudder 2013

For Brydon's very first competitive race ever, he decided to join a group of friends to run in the Dallas Tough Mudder.
12 Awesome Friends, Great Weather, and 13.1 Miles of Mud and Crazy Obstacles to Conquer!
Go Team Blitzkrieg!!

I was able to come watch the event and as a spectator could see most of the events.  I was the official videographer (we have a great 1 hour video of the entire event thanks to our friend's video editing).  The pictures are thanks to my spectator buddy who was the official photographer.  It was such a fun day!
