Triple R....Done, done and done!

Team Run, Walk, Crawl

I thought Ragnar with 5 fun ladies for 34 plus hours was awesome....but then there was the Red Rock Relay, the Triple R.  Running with good friends and their adorable husbands, sharing the running road with my own fabulous husband:  what a treat!  I was so proud of each member of our team.  Not only did we show up with positive attitudes, but everyone was willing to pound out their miles happily, despite some limitations.  Steve is a killer cyclist but has a harder time with running. He usually starts hurting after about five miles.  Because of that, we gave him the hills so that he could just walk them.  But his competitive nature and love of hill climbing took over, and he ended up running every single uphill mile, and at a fantastic pace, too!  Thanks, Alicia, for inviting us and thanks to Fishers for letting us twist your arms into joining us.  I thought it was the perfect combinations of personalities and abilities, with everyone working hard to do their part and a lot of fun laughter along the way.
