50 Mile Relay

Last Sat. I ran in a 50 mile relay. There were 5 girls on our team and we each had to run two legs that equaled 10 miles. My first leg was 6.1 miles and my pace came out to about a 9.40 mile. Now that might not be great for a runner but it was AWESOME for me! The second leg was 4 miles and I averaged almost an 11 min mile. That wasn't great but in my defense that was the farthest I have ever run in one day. So, pat on the back to me :) I'm not going to lie, I am so proud of myself. Now I am totally hooked on running. I am doing the Red Rock Relay in Sept. and I can't wait. If you are wondering what that is, go to www.redrockrelay.com and check it out. Get a team together and try to beat my team! Anyways, I only got a few pictures with my camera. I am waiting on the other pictures right now.

Go team

Coming in after my first run.

Apparently when I am exhausted, I tend to kick my ankle. In my second leg I couldn't stop kicking it and everytime I did I would yell really loud and a couple times I may have even said son of a ... you can guess what comes next :)
Oh and I have to add (for journal purposes) one of my New Year's Resolutions was to do something I have never done before. And here it is, Run in a Relay! Yeah, one New Year's resolution down.
