Ragnar Repeat

I don't have any pictures to post of our relay race yet, but just wanted to shout out to the blogosphere that I survived and had a great time despite the fact that my definition of "fun" includes 12 people running for 30 hours straight.

Here are my personal stats.

Leg 5-7.4 miles up Avon Pass. Hot. Dusty. Dirt road staight uphill. 1 hour 19 minutes.

Leg 17-4.4 miles. Gradual incline. Beautiful outskirts of Morgan. Rolling fields. Cooler early evening air. Every step I've taken this day has been uphill. What's the deal? 41 minutes exactly.

3 hours of sleep.

Leg 28-3.8 miles. 6-ish in the morning. Cool storm-clouds ahead. Had to swap an injured runner. Wasn't planning on this one. First 2 1/2 miles straight down mountain at Jordanelle. 8% grade. Pound. Pound. Pound. 32 minutes, 20 seconds.

Hurt everywhere. Loved every second.

Home. Showered. 13 hours of sleep. Not running again for a week.
