So in July family friends and I are planning to run the spartan race up in the Poconos. A personal trainer at my day job who has participated in one. Gave me some advice. "Practice running hills." So I said cool thank you! Not too long after that I was on a blog I follow (which I will list on here very soon) and one of the post had to do with preparing yourself to run hills by sled running. So I immediately got excited and wanted to buy a prowler. But after pricing them saw that I would have to buy one further down the road. Cool so I youtubed a few vids. Came across the homemade tire sled! Hopped to it and as you can see in the pics and the vid in the right hand corner it's beastly trust me. So I'm about three weeks into using this sled and it's like what took you so long??? I love it! Now I know love is a strong word and all but I want the world to know!!! Anyway me and my buddies would use it on the street. But I was getting tired of pausing for cars. So we now take it to a mini outdoor concert stadium parking lot. In which we don't have to worry about cars being there til the summer time. And even then the parking lot probably won't get used til night fall. I've used this parking lot about four times now. And this cat has watched us everyday (guess he lives there) and today even ran along side of us during some of our drills. So the last time out I said to myself. "I can't just be in this cats house and not pay any rent!" So as you can see in the pics we came to an agreement that we're both happy with. So I will be paying my way in cat food each time out. Then on the way home he has the nerve to ask me "well maybe I can be your mascot?" I said "Whoaaaaaaa!" Hahaha!
