Thanks for the input! Glad I'm not the only one who thinks it would be really fun; probably make me feel like a kid again! haha

I emailed my doctor; so hopefully I'll have an answer soon <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

LostMiler - I agree with you 110% about not living in a bubble, etc! I have swam SOME in lakes as well, and will be doing a lot more of it for triathlon training and races...I'm a little nervous about it - not for germs, but for swimming for a couple miles and not being able to see anything in the water lol

so my doctor just emailed me back, and was not very excited about my idea lol. see below

"I'm up in the air about your "MUD-A-THON" so to speak. You are right about soil having lots of bacteria. Usually the threat is when the soil is loose and dry and it becomes airborne carrying the bacteria. I wouldn't take a chance. You could cheer them on from the sidelines, which I recognize is not nearly as fun."

I know the decision is mine, not hers, but I will still probably pass...I've been very fortunate with my health thus far and don't want to risk it. Plus, I've got amazing training buddies and family that are training w/ me for my triathlon, which is an awesome time, so I'm not missing out all together. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Thanks again for all your input!!
