Ever heard of the Ragnar Relay?
I've decided to participate in it this year with some girls I've met at the track club I go to.
(And yes, I DID photoshop out the sweat ring that was under my armpit. Ah, technology.)

This race is crazy. Just last night, my family was asking me, "What exactly is the point?"
Here's the general info:
Route is from Prescott to Tempe Marketplace
12 team members
Each runner will go three times
These are my "leg" distances:
Runner #3
6.6 miles Very Hard
7.5 miles Hard
7.1 miles Hard
21.2 miles total
Runner #3
6.6 miles Very Hard
7.5 miles Hard
7.1 miles Hard
21.2 miles total
I'm slightly nervous for my first leg.
High altitude + uphill for 3 miles = butterflies in stomach
It's a blessing to be living with family right now. My training has not suffered because I've been able to run basically ("bee'sicklee"--for Mom and Jason) any time I want. No need to get up before Jeff leaves or run late at night. I love it!
The race is next weekend, Feb. 26-27. I'll be praying for no injuries and lots of courage while running along the side of the highway at eleven o clock at night. Yikes!!

I'm impressed. I think you're crazy. But I'm impressed.
Until I get a lap pool in my own backyard (which will be never) I won't be exercising much. I change rugrats all day instead.
