We got to run in a Ragnar Relay this year. Totally fun experience! The race was in Vegas so we headed down on Thursday and went to the strip so we could walk around and see the sights.
We Stayed at Ians cousin Mandys house that night and then started our run at 11:30am.
Our group went first and Matt started us off then handed off to me, then amanda, Ian, Alex and Danny handed off to the other van.
My first run was defininatly the worst one of the bunch. most of it was on dirt roads.
Ian had a really nasty climb during his first run but he tackled it like a champ.
I guess Danny wasnt able to get everything in order so the guys jumped in to help him get ready for his leg.
During Dannys first leg we stopped by these cool cave rocks so we climbed around for a while waiting for Danny to get there for water.
Yeah, Dannys got an IV!! I guess it was really hot or something.Danny didnt eat or drink much before his run and no body really noticed so naturally Danny got heat stroke and came into the exchange really Dizzy and not all there. So after about 30 minutes of throwing water on him and listening to him say funny things we got him over to the medic tent and got an IV in him. So after 2 hours a visit from the ambulance and some food and water. we headed out to our next start point.

We were really bad about taking pictures through the night, But this is my last leg, well I guess Dannys last leg but because he got the IV her wasnt eligible to run anymore So Ian had to pickup his second leg and I took the third. So this picture is me starting Dannys last leg, my fourth leg.
Most people dec their vans out with stuff and so we
