The Stampede!

Last Saturday, I got to happily tick off another item from my "Kick Arse Lifestyle List" (aka Bucket List). We participated in The Stampede, a 5km obstacle course... and it was SO MUCH FUN!!

Firstly, some photos of Stuart, Chris and I chilling out waiting for our race time to begin..

thumbs of for finishing the gruelling but fun 5km obstacle course
happy faces - taken moments after crossing the finishing line.

Hope you enjoyed my photographs from this event. Sorry that there are so many, I just struggled trying to cull it down. We had so much fun, and hope to do it again next year - maybe even go for the 10km next time. You can still donate for our cause CanTeen too.. just pop on over here.

Lots of love,
Chantal
