PA Sprint Results & Photos!


The Results Are In...
I am hooked! Okay, besides that. The actual results for me were:

  • Total time: 3:46:11
  • Overall Place: 4774
  • Gender Place: 1483
  • Age Place: 299
Since Spartan Race doesn't provide numbers for the amount of people in each category, these numbers mean next to nothing. How many people were my age? My gender? Thanks for the useless number Spartan. Oh well. That wasn't my goal anyway. We finished.

Photos!
So Spartan had 4 locations on the mountain where they were taking photos.

At the top of the sandbag carry. I looked super ready to hand it over in this photo (blue bra, dark grey shorts), even though my teammate Richard (yellow shirt) looks like he could carry this thing the whole race.


 There was another photo op at the tractor pull. But somehow my entire team got skipped. There is a giant gap missing in time (they are all time stamped). The only photo I was able to find was this one of Mike's face, and my shoulder/leg. Brilliant job Spartan.

The next photos were all during the very long barbed wire crawl. There were obviously very interesting photos during this segment. I look totally unamused in this photo. I think that was the point when I stopped to look up and realized I still had quite a way to go. Unfortunately, I couldn't find many photos of my team mates for this one either!

The last one of course, is featured on the top from the fire jump. This is the photo everyone strives for. Because, let's face it: it looks awesome. Ours came out okay: Richard is kicking Greg, Christina and Matt are suffocating on toxic fumes, and we all look genuinely silly. Oh well. It was the finish and it was amazing just the same. And look! I am hovering!

Overall...
Overall, I was a little dissapointed by the lack of good photos. Although I will admit it is partially my fault: I didn't see many of the cameras until it was too late (or I couldn't see from the smoke in my eyes!). Even though they are free (yay!) I am still a little dissapointed. Oh well... I have more to come, better luck next time.
