Running The SoCal Ragnar Relay Today

This morning I'll be joining 11 team members that call themselves "Sole Train" to run just over 203 miles through southern California in the Ragnar Relay. It should take us somewhere between 25-35 hours. The distance I have to run isn't huge, just under 20 miles split between 3 legs, so this seems to be more about endurance as we'll be operating on whatever food we can pack with us and little sleep.

The team has chosen to run for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, which is a good cause, especially for me as I found out recently that a co-worker was recently diagnosed with Leukemia. If you have a few minutes and a few dollars, a contribution to the Society would be appreciated by people more than you know.

Assuming we pass the pre-race safety training (and that is a big assumption), by the time this blog goes live our first runner will be on their way while the rest of us pile into two vans towards the next leg of the race.

Pray for our safety and sanity. And for random Domino's Pizza delivery people to get lost and dump pizza our way.
