Watching the group begin to gather all around Kaj from her place just off to the side of the commotion the pale mare couldn't help but feel nervous. This was going to be a big day and somehow she had managed to pull a leading role out of the festivities. At first she was completely against the whole idea of having to speak up in front of everyone and give directions but slowly Kaj had managed to convince her to step forward. This was her chance to help out the family that had given her so much throughout the years and to have a little fun as well. It had been quite fun designing the obstacle course for her race along with the help of her friends and family, without them she doubted she could have ever pulled it off in time for today’s festivities.

As the main gathering quickly drew to a close she moved forth to take her spot to brief those who wanted to participate in the first annual Hidden Falls Obstacle Race. Hopping up onto one of the rocky ledges nearby so as to make herself taller and more noticeable she gazed out to the first obstacle of the course only a short distance away. The first task that must be completed to move onto the next one would be what they had come to call the Slip N Slider. Laughing at the memory of all the strange and humorous names they had come up with at the last get together she was glad they had finally managed to stop laughing long enough to decide on the obstacle names. The first obstacle was one of the most challenging in her opinion for it was a 700 foot climb straight up the side of one of the hills only to have to descend back down the other side. If that didn't scare you off the slick and dangerous conditions made for quite the treacherous climb. Frostfall weather had given them huge areas of black ice, large icicles protruding from the hillside and last but not least the deep snow concealing much of the climbing route. Contestants needed to be careful navigating the route so that they made it back in one piece. At the top stood one of the four giant torches they had constructed to light the way burning brightly with a lovely blue flame she herself had provided. This was going to be a blast and on the plus side at least she didn't have to try and make that climb again.


Clearing her throat to gather everyone’s attention she finally spoke with surprising confidence to go over the details. “Everyone interested in competing in the first annual Hidden Fall’s Obstacle Race please gather around!” Giving a moment for those who had not seen her standing there to realize who was speaking she continued once more to provide all the details and rules of the coming race.

It took only a couple short minutes to deliver all the details before she turned her head to Suli and the rest of the dragons who would be flying overhead to monitor the pack’s progress. Nodding to them with a smirk she watched them take flight ready to oversee the racecourse from above. Looking back to the contestants eagerly awaiting the start she spoke once more.
“Ready, Set, GO!!”
