Brodie's Sea Cadet unit participated yesterday in the Salvation Army Dirt Dash, a 5-K run to raise money for Salvation Army children's camps. The run took place at their camp in the Malibu hills and combined cross-country running with an obstacle course. The last part of the course was a deep mud pit guarded by men with fire hoses.
The only safe way through was to combat crawl; Those who stood were washed over with the hose.
After Brodie's race they had a kid's fun run for Nik, thankfully much shorter than 5 kilometers. The kids were then able to hose down and change into clean clothes for the rest of the day. There was a high ropes course to test the Cadets' courage, and a swimming pool for cooling off in the 90 degree heat.
