MUST HAVE MUD
    Aside from housing Mud Monsters, there are many surprising uses for mud. Here are five unusual ways mud is used in the world of sports, beauty, and even food.
    As part of its Hard Corps Race Series, Camp Pendleton in Southern California hosts the World Famous Mud Run, a 10K run with hills, tire obstacles, river crossings, two 5-foot walls surrounded by mud, a tunnel crawl, a slippery hill climb, and a 30-foot-wide mud pit. There’s a 2-hour, 45-minute time limit on the completion of the course, so keep your mud-pie making to a minimum.
    Fancy spas all over the world offer mud baths to highend clients. But they don’t use just any mud from the side of the road; they have their own secret recipes that include peat, volcanic ash, and mineral water. Some people like these warm mud baths for their antigravity-like feeling. Mud baths were first used to treat arthritis, but many people think there are many other benefits.
    Your local health food store probably sells mud — in the form of clay powder — and it’s going to get rubbed in your face. Here’s a facial mask you can make in your home: Mix together 1 tablespoon dry clay with 1 egg yolk, ¼ of a mashed avocado, and enough witch hazel to create a smooth texture. Spread over your face, being careful to avoid eyes, nostrils, and mouth, and let dry for about five minutes before washing off with warm water.
    Because they don’t have sweat glands, pigs rely on mud to keep them cool and protect them from the sun. However, if your little brother tries to use that excuse to explain his own mud-seeking ways, he’s not telling the truth!

    A nutrition expert at the Yale School of Medicine said that the binding effect of clay could cause it to absorb toxins, making it possible for people to eat certain foods that have always caused upset stomachs in the past. But don’t try this with dirt from your backyard — you need a certain type of clay.

    My name is Ray Gordon and I’m twelve. My brother, Brandon, is nine, but people think that he’s older than I am.
    That’s because Brandon is a big hulk of a kid. He’s about half a foot taller than me. He has broad shoulders and a big chest, straight black hair, and a cold stare that makes him look like he’s tough.
    I’m short and very thin. I have curly blond hair and blue eyes and freckles on my cheeks. I’m the youngest kid in my class, but I’m three years older than Brandon. And everyone we meet thinks I’m the little brother.
    Which is funny because Brandon is a total wimp. So
what
if I look like an elf standing next to a giant?
    I’m the tough one in the family. He’s scared of bugs and
