So.... I figured that some of you may be tired of hearing about the relay and the story behind it. Or perhaps some of you only know half of the story and aren't sure what I'm talking about or why. So, I decided to start a blog. Who knew I was even capable?
The Colorado Relay: What is it?
A 174 mile team relay race, beginning in Glenwood Springs, Colorado finishing in Carbondale, Colorado. There are 11 women on my team or 12 if you count our alternate. We will run over a 30 hour period, yes in the dark as well, around the clock from 6am on Friday, September 12 until we cross the finish line some time around noon on September 13. It may rain, or perhaps even snow. We'll be running at elevations nearing 13,000ft, through creeks, over mountain passes, under the light of the full moon and basically for our lives! :) Our Mental Support includes My husband Jeff and Rodney (a team mate's other half) who will drive our 2 team vans, My Mom and Dale as our Relay Volunteers, and a whole slew of pace runners and friends and family cheering along the way. We will be ordering pink t-shirts this week that say"MENTAL SUPPORT", if you are interested please let me know and we will order one for you. They are $10, and will be ready for the race on September 12. http://www.coloradorelay.com
By now you are probably asking yourself.... WHY??
