Hear any oinking?

Here's David, happy as a pig in the mud! and no wonder. He just won this trophy and medal, but I want him to tell it as he did in an email:

"...We went to Fort Ord near Monterrey to do their annual ‘Mud Run’.
I was on a team with 4 other Hitachi guys. We ran 6 miles which included passage through a number of mud traps.
It was cold and raining the night before and I knew it would be very cold at Fort Ord, being next to the ocean. But at least the web site said ‘showers would be provided’.
At one of the traps you had to run across a thin bar with a lake of mud underneath it. At the end was a downhill of mud that ended at a big wall. You were supposed to climb over the wall, but there were a lot of Ladies in the race. Many could not make it over the wall. So you had find a spot to squeak through or push one of the stuck ladies over. (I found a spot to get through but the guy next to me had to do a push. I heard the lady say ‘Thank You!’ – I am not kidding.) On the other side of the wall was a mud pit which you fell into. Then you ran through knee-high muddy water. Once you got out of the water, a Drill Instructor yelled at you ‘Drop and give me 10!’ At which point you had to do 10 push ups before you could continue on the race.
The last mud pit had a low-hanging canopy over it. You had to crawl through the mud under the canopy. Once you got out there was a fire truck on the side. Its water was connected to a set of over-head sprayers you had to run through. It turns out that these were the ‘showers’ they promised. But somebody forgot to turn the heater on!
But here is the big news: WE TOOK FIRST PLACE IN THE CORPORATE DIVISION! We beat out five other teams. ... I won a medal and our team won a huge trophy."

CONGRATULATIONS TO UNCLE DAVE AND HIS FOUR TEAMMATES FROM HITACHI!
