Running the Ragnar

Well.... I survived the Ragnar. With 11 other runners, we ran 196 miles from Chattanooga TN to Nashville.  It was the best and the worst thing I've ever done. I had a great time and I'm super proud that I survived. Six of the runners were from my ward in Louisville, and the other six are from Nashville. Thanks to my good friend Lydia who lives in Nashville, we were able to form a complete team! 

This is after I finished my last leg. These are the gals from Louisville hugging me because it meant we were finished running. 

Lydia and I in front of a cotton field along the route. The weather ended up being perfect. No rain, no snow, and 40 degrees during the day.

Here are some pictures from the finish line. Our team was running ahead of schedule, but a few of our runners got lost on their last legs and we ended up finishing a lot later than anticipated. But the important thing is that we finished!

So happy to be done. Don't mind me being awkward front and center

Here is the entire team! We had a 13 year old boy- who kicked butt, and are whole team ended up being LDS!

Here we all are!
