I finished the Ruby Mountain Relay! It was a 12 person relay over 184 miles. We finished in 32.5 hours (about 10.5 minutes per mile) Each person had to run 3 "legs" each spaced out by ~10 hours. We finished #27 out of ~35 teams.

I was runner #3 and did 3.25 miles, then 5.7 miles, then 4.2 miles. I felt pretty strong and ran faster times than I was expecting, but the 5.7 miler was a real killer uphill and into the wind.

Here are a couple pics from the race:

In the support van, we got to know each other very well after spending 30+ hours in a row with little-to-no sleep

Crossing the finish line... wooo!

Congrats, that looks like that was fun. Your running and biking has always been a nice reminder that exercise is super important to stay sane while working on stuff, so thanks! Also, those beast shirts look awesome!

Yes, it was really fun and a much needed mental break from the Super Chibi Knight grind. Thanks for dropping a note!

Congrats on the relay and I absolutely can't wait for the new chibi knight!

I'm too fat and lazy for that kind of stuff.
