Ran the lake to lake relay, did legs 2 & 9. leg 2 was 6 miles with a big hill at the beginning and the end, but downhill all between, and leg 9 was only 4.5 miles, but it was all dirt, i kept slipping on the rocks, and there were crazy hills all over the place. but i kept going. I'm pretty sure they assigned me that leg cuz im a redhead...

Coach Fielding's team took first overall with a team of 4 hours 50 minutes. Gratz to them.

my team finished in roughly 6 hours. Good job Lisa, Bob, Derek, and Katie!!!

So, i haven't blogged in a while, but i feel like I should probably talk about the race today.  we ran an easy 3 in the morning, then raced in the afternoon.  Basically, we decided we should have our A group boys stick with Casey Kimzey. So, for the first mile and a half to two miles, me, Brigham Whitney, and Kris Hansen stuck with him. Brigham and Kris were just ahead of him with me on his hip. After a while, coach gave us the signal, and Brigham and Kris just took off. I stayed right behind him for a little while, but eventually I moved on and passed him with close to 800m left. My teammate Ben Powell, passed me at about the same time, so we now had 4 runners in the top group. I ended up taking 9th overall, just behind Ben, who took 7th, and ahead of Kimzey who took 10th. It was a great race, and I'm psyched for the rest of the season.
