    Talking Warrior Dash!

    So I ran the Warrior Dash on Sunday. It's a 5 kilometer race through a muddy obstacle course. Clan Ferguson represented Not that you can see the tartan through the mud...







    Got several "love the kilt!" comments before, during, and after the run (I changed into a clean kilt for the rest of the after party). But the best was some guy who grunted in dismay as we had to fall to our hands and knees and crawl under a low canopy... "Great, I'm behind the kilt..."

    Do you have any 'non watermarked' versions of the photos? I'd love to put them in our customer gallery.

    BTW, I can tell it's one of our kilts ONLY b/c of the patch outline visible through the mud in the last pic. I'd also love to see a picture of the kilt after it was washed to see how well it holds up!

    When I saw the second picture,the first thing that came to my mind was;
    ''Why is Harry Potter jumping over fire, doesn't he have a broomstick???''

    I'm planning on run at one of these soon... just gotta get back to my rugby fitness program...

    Nicely done BTW.

    I'm with Rocky! I could see the USAK patch too and would LOVE to see how that cleans up...

    Good eye, Rocky! I'll be getting some non-watermarked versions pretty soon and replace these. Just haven't received the finals yet. After a go with the hose and a rumble in the washer, you'd think it was a brand new kilt. I'll see if I can get someone to take an after-snap. [PS... I love the new logo!]

    be da veva... I hate you I've been getting Harry Potter cracks since the first book came out (I happen to have a lightning-bolt-ish scar on my forehead and used to study "the arts"). Are you going to be running kilted, too?
