Why do I always wake up earlier than I need to. I am 30 minutes early and am totally ready. Well I guess that leaves me time to do a quick post. I am heading out for the Ragnar Relay Northwest Passage. I am excited and nervous because this is unlike anything I have ever done. Everyone on the team is faster than me but few have run a full marathon, not sure if that makes a difference or not...but hey...I will take it. I am running a harder leg than initially planned and I hope it goes well.
Runner 11:
Leg 1 6:23 pm 6.8 Miles Hard
Leg 2 2:34 am 4.7 Miles VERY Hard
Leg 3 10:46 am 3.7 Miles Moderate
I have packed and have my outfits and food ready to go. Who knows how much sleep I will get...not much I am sure. The smell of 6 other runners will be one to remember I am sure...and not for the better. Our team name is "Smell Like Team Spirit"...which will for sure be true.
Pray that it all goes well and that I do well. Especially for Leg 2! I have never run in the dark, but I am sure it will be an experience...very calming, scary and I am sure other things! Hoping for the best. I have logged many miles so in that way I feel prepared, but running in a new place can be different and to have no idea how the hills are is a little scary. I have hills in all of the runs, but Leg 2 has the most...should be FUN!

GOOOOOOOD LUUUUUUCK! Run fast, have fun!
have fun! good luck! this sounds awesome, can't wait to hear how it goes!
Enjoy, Enjoy. My two cents from doing a Relay back in May is...remember to STRETCH after each leg (especially b4 hopping back in the van) and roll any area that seems soar and needing attention!
Good luck and have fun!! Ragnar was one of the best experiences of my life - I cant wait to do it next year!
