Three of us from my office signed up to race the Warrior Dash down in Florence, AZ.

2. Drive until the radio stations are ALL in Spanish.
3. When you see a prison, you've arrived!

Just like any American holiday, it was just an excuse to dress slutty and show off my tattoos:

This is me after I got home and shaved the beard. My marriage can continue uninterrupted now.
