Yes I know, this post is really delayed, but seeing as though I didn't have my camera with me I was relying on a friend to get pictures back from her. I first must admit that I did not prepare myself as good as I should've, would've, could've for this race. Granted I had a baby the end of January, however, the fact that there were two girls 7 months pregnant running my same stages, I felt I had no excuses. I survived the three legs that total up to 13 miles. Our poor team had some ups and downs before the race was here. I think we only had 6 of the original members on our team actually run. Injuries, pregnancies, and personal issues caused half the team to drop. Luckily we found replacements (a few jumped in only a day before the race). Despite the randomness of our team I made a few new friends and enjoyed the experience. The scenery of the Wasatch mountains, lakes, and country side made it hard to complain while running not too mention the weather couldn't have been better. Between my shuffle playlist, the support of my teammates, and Brian and the girls cheering me on made pushing through that much easier.
12 runners, 2 vans, lack of sleep, tired legs, stomach problems, a few team hiccups along the way, 189 miles and 30 hours later we finished Ragnar 2010 Wasatch Back. I had a great time and would love to do this again.

Can you tell who just ran? (hint, flip flops and no numbers) and can you beat this view?
