My Muddy Shoes

Hey There Mud Shuckers!

Time to count miles instead of calories. I don’t know about you, but I got some holiday blubber to burn off! As much as I’m able to keep pushing those cookies, mashed potatoes and brewskis away during the holidays (Resist! Resist!), amazingly some manage to get through and in my belly (like a bowl full of jelly!) Not sure how that happens! Either way we’re meeting and running to start the year right. C’mon out and join us!

Disclaimer: All New Years resolutions will be in full force until otherwise notified!

BTW, does this trail make my ass look fat? Asking for a friend…
