187 miles (the race started in Blaine, WA and ended in Langley on Whidbey Island)
24 hours
Team of 12 ladies in 2 vans - our team name was "Therapy on the Run" (we all needed a little therapy - we must be crazy to be doing this!)
No sleep (except for the hour and a half we tried to sleep on a hard gym floor - this included the fire alarms going off twice)
No showers
Lots of fun memories and beautiful scenery
And I can't wait to do it again next year!
RAGNAR Northwest Passage 2010
Each person runs 3 legs of the race - My 3 legs were 6.1 miles, 4.7 miles and 6.8 miles. The first run was in the middle of the afternoon and VERY hot. It also had some pretty good hills. The second run was about 3 am so the temperature outside was perfect, and it was fun to run in the dark with a headlamp, reflective vest, and a tail light. That run was VERY hilly. And my third run was very hilly, but at about 10 am, so it wasn't too hot yet.
What a crazy experience! Anyone want to join me when I do it again next year?
