About three and a half hours into what was supposed to be a two and a half hour ride my phone died. No GPS so I had to buy a map and tape directions to my tank. It was surprisingly rewarding. I need to unplug more often. 

Rensselaerville, NY. October 2012. 

A couple weeks a go I ran a warrior dash in upstate New York with a couple close friends. In case you’re unfamiliar a Warrior Dash is a 5k footrace scattered with obstacles. 

The races happen all over the country, ours was in Wyndham New York on the side of ski hill. We climbed more than a thousand feet up Wyndham Mountain all the while scrambling over barricades and sloshing through mud and crawling under barbed wire. 

We got dirty, we got cut and scrapped, we drank bad beer at the end and had a ton of fun. The race ate my camera, but I managed to get a few shots anyway.
