Ragnar or Bust!

Over the weekend my cousin Tamara and I had the awesome opportunity to run the Ragnar Relay Wasatch Back. If you don't know what that means it is a relay race that starts in Logan and ends in Park City, a total of 192 miles. Over the course of 2 days our team of 12 runners competed to win, or at least get a good time! Every runner has 3 legs they run throughout the course. Each team is separated into 2 vans and the racing beings!

This race was the hardest thing I have done to date but also one of the funnest! I made some great friends and had a great time. I personally ran over 18 miles, all with-in a 21hr window with hardly any sleep and little rest in between races.



I have more pictures to show of this amazing adventure but I had to share this one first. These are the lovely ladies of the first van, we were the first 6 runners. Our team was mostly from Pleasant Grove, so our team name was ' The Grove Trotters'.



These girls are all amazing runners! It took a lot to keep up with them but it was well worth it! I just heard that our team placed 56th in over 1050 teams competing. With the help from the boys in our second van we really rocked it out there! More pictures to come! :)
