Red Rock Relay!
Last weekend I was able to run the Red Rock Relay with some friends. I spent months training for this race and it ended up being worth it. It was so rewarding to have finished the race! The race was 187 miles long and I was on a team of 12. We each ran three legs, it was a day and night race. This was far more demanding then I ever imagined. Alot of running, no sleep, no food, and a scorching sun made for a tough two days. It was so fun though being with a group of girls, no responsibilities, enduring together. We ended up having a great time. My first leg was 4.6 miles uphill, it was hard but it was overcast and pretty cool, making it bearable. My second leg was at about 3:00 in the morning. This was 2.8 miles on flat road, it was easy and I was able to run it pretty quickly, it was invigorating running at night, kind of scary but exciting too. My las leg was by far the hardest. It was 5 miles uphill in the 100* heat! I had no idea I could push my body so far on so little. I was so relieved to see the finish and I almost got hit by a car on the way in! This was so fun and I will for sure do it again. It was satisfying to finish something so hard!
