Wasatch Back Ragnar Relay

I DID IT!!!  I honestly thought this weekend was going to be the death of me, and it wasn't!  :)  I cannot even begin to explain how much fun I had running this relay!  I had so much fun, that I'm already planning on running it again next year!!  I think having a fun team really helps, and I had an AWESOME team!!  I didn't get to know anyone in Van 2 really well, but I loved getting to know everyone in Van 1!  My favorite leg, by far, was my 1:30 am run! I didn't think I'd enjoy that leg very much because of the time, but I was so pumped up for that run!  The weather was perfect and I had my team cheering me on the whole way. We didn't finish the race in the time we were planning, but we still did pretty good.  After 28 hours and 8 minutes of non-stop running, we crossed the finish line!  Way to go Belly Whackers!!

Getting ready to start my first leg, which was 5.1  miles
Thank goodness for that super soaker!!  5 miles in the heat of the day SUCKED!
We didn't get any pictures of our night runs, so we took a picture together after we had finished
I got to see the Phat Asphalt team more than I thought I would. I loved it!
So pumped and having so much fun on my last leg, which was 3.8 miles downhill
About to pass 2 roadkill!
