And since a Frisbee gets thrown, it often winds up over my head.<br /><br />Your points are well taken, however, and I do appreciate the encouragement. I'll try to keep my head in the game and see if that helps.Mark Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11567392254011373198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3359677.post-57277650610387163772010-06-08T00:55:17.216-07:002010-06-08T00:55:17.216-07:00You're going to love the Camp Pendleton Mud Ru...You're going to love the Camp Pendleton Mud Run. I don't know much about the Irvine Lake one but I can't imagine it being a better challenge than Camp Pendleton.<br /><br />Survive, yes, that should be your goal. That was my goal the first year and still is really. It's a tough race but you'll feel better after having run it because of that.<br /><br />Also, with regards to frisbee, you have built up your endurance quite a bit so if you can just keep up your running and work hard, you'll be better off because of that. I used to play soccer a lot, just pick-up soccer with my brothers and cousins, nothing serious, and I probably had the worst skill set of anyone. But I also had the best stamina of anyone, so all I did was run. I ran hard and ran far and ran all game long. I wasn't good at shooting so I made sure to try and move around to create space for others. I wasn't the best defender but as long as I ran back and got between the ball and the goal, I was at least on a good position. Just work hard and show your running skills and you'll be fine.L.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03932409909043501781noreply@blogger.com
