This weekend I had the most amazing experience with 11 other people. We ran a 12 person relay race running from Prescott to Mesa totaling 202 miles and finished in a little more than 29 hours. I can't even explain what it is like to not sleep for 2 days, to run a total of 18 miles and in between cheering on your other team members as they run all through the day and night. We visited places I had never even heard of like Congress Arizona, or Skull Valley. This race had over 2400 people running and vans going everywhere, stopping all over the road to jump out and give their runner some water and scream encouragment to keep going. You can try to sleep but it just didn't happen. I never knew how good peanut butter and honey could taste even washing it down with Gatorade. Even though I can hardly walk today I can't wait to try it again next year. Team Skyline Hybrids you rock!
