Frogger Jogger
Race update.
The Tower of Terror 13k took us alongside some motorway style roads and through woods and along plenty of water.
At certain points they had pick-up trucks playing loud music. The best race tune we heard was a Neil Diamond track - got us running past very fast ;-)
As I said before I ran the race with my new American friend Raes son. We had a water fight at one point (well I threw a few cups of water over his head) and generally didn't take it all too seriously (running through puddles rather than around them etc).
As we headed back towards the MGM park Raes son jogged onto a dead frog (by accident I hasten to add) making it pop over his shoes...eewwww!!
From then on he had to endure being called:
The Frogger Jogger
The Froginator
Kermit Killer
Road Toad
And also being asked if he was wearing "Crocs"... oh no they are frogs aren't they ;-) lol.
I was impressed with his running as he had only ran about 4 miles before and we managed to run the 8+ without stopping! I've got admit that running with someone else is a lot more fun.
No running for me today - way tired out. Back to normal tomorrow.

That is the coolest running bling ever :-)
Shame about the frog.
When we were coming through fantasmic they were playing chariots of fire! I like Neal diamond! Plus by the time we made it back they were packing up the music! Next year I plan on running it and not getting sick!
And I will have on my frog trackers! Hahaha
That is a seriously awesome metal!!
And the lift even goes up and down :-)
