The Relay - coming up on Oct 15-16
So I 'm registered to run in the relay with a team set up by law enforcement guys from Fairfield (our team name is Catie And Annies Cops 3, registered teams page). The run is a 199 mile relay from Napa Valley to Santa Cruz. There are 12 people on a team that run 3 separate legs each. Somehow i got a pretty tough leg (I have legs 10, 22, & 34 link).
my first leg, 8.9mi, 6.94% avg grade!
my 2nd leg, 4.2mi, only a 101' elev gain.
3rd leg, 6.2mi, 352' elev change, but what makes it hard is the last 2mi go from 285' elev to 746' elev, which is an avg 4.37% grade to finish off my total 19.3mi.
The purpose of the relay is to raise money for various groups, usu organ donation. Our team is specific to Catie and Annie (see image and description below). If anyone could dontate or sponsor me please let me know. Also if anyone would want to volunteer I think you can do that here. I know kevin volunteered last year and had a good time doing that. Especially since the event went right by his house in Sonoma (which ironically is where I will be running by this year). Ian convinced kev and i to join this particular team because he has been doing it now for a couple of years. =) should be a good run, be sure to ask me if i've been running to prepare, i've been on the bike a lot but need to put in some foot time as well...
