A Little Red Rock Relay Action

Sooooo fun! Aaron and I ran the Red Rock Relay. It started in Brian Head then we headed through... Mammoth, Duck Creek, Navajo Lake, down Cedar Breaks (scary to run down), Cedar city, Enterprise, other small towns I don't know, then through Snow Canyon, St. George, Washington, La Verkin and we ended right by the Zion's National Park entrance in Springdale. It was a total of 186 miles. We had 12 people on our team and two vans. It took our team 31 hours of none stop runnin to finish. Aaron and I were in Van 1 AKA the Snow van. It's called that for a reason. We got to Brian Head at 7:30 in the morning and it was feakin freezing! I think my van registered it in the 30's. YIKES!!! Then van 2 was the sun van because they were running in the heat of St. George and it was upper 90's. YUCK! I will definitely be doing this again next year. So worth the no sleep and super sore body for 2 days after. Here is a picture overload of our running extravaganza...

Our van was AWESOME!

Finally!

I finally get to put that oh so awesome first day of school photo on my blog. I feel so special... and this is how our morning went... Ezra crying because he HATES collar t-shirts and buttons. And Aaron and I pulling out our bribery skills to calm him down. Slurpee wins!

No, he isn't showing off his sweet back pack. This is him not wanting to take a picture.
He finally turned around long enough for me to take a picture. Awwww...
