My other New Year's Resolution was to run the Ragnar. A sweet woman I visit teach needed one more for her team, so I joined in and started training. The Ragnar is a 200 mile relay race across Arizona. My first leg was in the afternoon, it was a hot 7.2 miles. But I did it! No walking and no puking, so I took it as a win.
My second leg was at one am and was only four-ish miles. That one was the most fun, it was kind of cool to run along the interstate in the middle of the night. I made Julie come get me at two a.m. and grabbed a quick four hours of sleep, I just couldn't sleep in the van. My last leg was in the afternoon and was hot, but was only another three miles and change.
Our ten-member team was running for a sweet girl in our ward, Evelyn, and her fight against cancer.
It was a great way to see more of Arizona and meet new people. While it was a hard road, I'm so glad I did it!
