Last weekend I ran in the Napa Valley Ragnar Relay on the team 33 hours in Paradise. It was my 12th Ragnar overall and my 4th Napa Valley Ragnar.

For those of you not familiar with a Ragnar Relay: The Ragnar Relay is a long-distance relay race a la' Hood to Coast. The average team has 12 runners, and the course is around 200 miles long. Each runner runs 3 legs of 3 to 9 miles, and the race takes an average of 30 hours to complete. The runners get from exchange to exchange via two passeneger vans. While one van's runners are running, the other van is resting and trying to get some sleep. For more info, check out this link.

My Teammates:

Our fearless leader was Cathy, whose team I ran on last year. In my van was a few other compatriots from last year's team: Ragnar veteran Stephanie, Damon the tall guy, (More than half a foot taller than my 6'1" self,) and our fearless van leader Erica, who was my van leader last year. We also had two Ragnar newbies: Scott and Beth.
