I contemplated writing up a nice long post today about the relay race before realizing how burnt out I still am from the weekend.  This isn’t too surprising.  On Saturday alone, I lost about 6 pounds.

I’ve been a runner long enough to know that most of that was fluids.  Judging by the soreness of muscles, I know that I’m still not fully hydrated and I’m in no shape to be creative or think about what lessons I’ve learned.

Instead, I’m going the cop-out route and providing a few race photos.  Enjoy!

The Tufted Mazurkas (left to right): Amanda, Greta, Marissa, Me, Andrew (running the final leg), Scott, Dean, Nichole, Steph

(We made sure every team finished with their final runner.  In our case, it was Andrew.  I met him half a mile out and ran the rest of the way until we met the team just over that dike in the background.)

    Very cool. I love that you joined Andrew at the end. True team work! Way to go!
