Warrior Dash !

Five members of the Perrysburg Firefighters local 3331 participated in the warrior Dash in Carrollton Ohio on September 10 2011.  The Warrior Dash is a 5K race that is dredged through mud, water, and filled with obstacles.  We would like to congratulate them on their efforts!  Pictured from left to right is FFP Amy Allan, FFP Al Bagdonas, FFP Pat Fleming, FFP Chris Stockner, and FFP Jason Kessler.  Jason Kessler finished 1st in his age group and 3rd overall in a race that had almost 10,000 participants.  If you would like to learn more about the warrior dash click on the link.  http://warriordash.com/register2011_ohio_2.php    

Adventure races!

Here is a photo of us before http://warriordash.com/ in Michigan

Here is a photo of me after, and yes this is typical for all participants.

The race was a lot of fun there was a great party and an awesome band playing afterwards.  Our members have participated in several charity 5k's this year and our speed demon Jason Kessler has even won a few.  These races are a little different, not your standard 5K but definitely a lot of fun.  We have close to a dozen running The Warrior Dash again in Carrellton, Ohio.

There are other races that are similar tougher or easier we only encourage you to participate.  Please contact us with any type of fitness events, we like to compete in everything from powerlifting to running and everything in between.  Below are some of the other events we may be competing in.

Recently I purchased these shoes fromDave's Running

While opinions differ the science goes either way depending on what source you quote. Listed below is a fairly objective piece, like anything research it yourself. I like them if your interested in them one great piece of advice I received was to get the socks or they will end up stinking it up.
