Hardest things about RAGNAR RELAY?
- Well, the running of course! :) The first leg, I thought I was in over my head... but after I finished, I was excited for the next one! By the third, I admit I was EXHAUSTED (having had only about an hour and a half of sleep) but because it was the last leg, I pushed it and kept on going.
- Not having Alex there. Alex couldn't get off work (and he didn't feel like he was trained enough to do it... uh, I wasn't either.) ;) But it would have been SO much better having him there for extra support. We did text quite frequently though, so I guess that is better than nothing.
- My right knee... really, this wasn't a big issue, but on my second leg I could barely keep myself from walking. It was so so so so so painful. Thankfully, that was the only leg it was an issue with.
BUT... even with those circumstances, I would do it again in a heartbeat. It was such an accomplishment for myself. I'm usually one who talks about 'wanting to do' things, and it never materializes... or, I commit to it, then find an excuse not to go due to lack of confidence. I am so glad that I stuck with it, and pushed myself. I had such a blast!! Can't wait to do it again.
(My van! GREAT team to run with!)
