Ragnar Race


Here's a picture of Wendy on one of the legs she was running in this Ragnar race that - never mind, you read about it http://www.ragnarrelay.com/. It's an insane race and some serious mileage covered. This sign Wendy's holding reads 138.3 miles down and we think her and a team of 11 (which included Ronna) had to finish 200 miles. The good news is that she's not still running but actually made it in for her workout just a couple of days after. Here's what she had to say:
[here's a pic of me (and my biker who escorted me through corn fields in pitch black at 5am) after my last leg of the race..... I ran 6.8miles at 8am on Friday morning, 4.2 miles at 9pm Friday night and then 7.9 miles on Saturday at 5:30am..... the running was fine (thanks to Plumbline!) but the lack of sleep was awful! And, thanks to Plumbline again, everyone was walking around all stiff after and Ronna and I were FINE!!! The total mileage on the sign I am holding was the team effort up to that point. see you at 11....Wendy]
Great job Wendy and Ronna we're proud of you.

Wow, very impressive! I could not imagine staying up all night and then running. Really awesome.
