cascade lakes relay

Twelve of us ran the Cascade Lakes Relay: 216.6 miles from Diamond Lake Resort (almost Crater Lake) to Bend, Oregon. Quite a deal. 2 vans. 33 hours, 7 minutes, 9 seconds. Average time of 9:22. Not bad considering elevation and temperature and slower team members...me :) Most didn't get too much sleep on the gym floor...next time we're bringing WD-40 for the squeaky gym door :) Thanks to Callie and Justin for multiple emails which we all just skimmed believing that they had it under control. They did :)






This for me was testament to the power of peer pressure on adults. Peer pressure to join...well not too much...people are fairly optimistic 6 months out. Peer pressure when you see the van in the distance and you're slogging. Peer pressure when your team drops you off and says "See you in 2 miles. Run hard!"

Anyway, more pictures on other blogs/FB. I think I'd do it again :)
