Hawthorn Half Day Relay

Our own local version of the Highway to Hell...The long day in the Sahara began with the playing of the song "Highway to Hell".  Tom and I completed in the 12 hour relay on Saturday June 16th and it too felt like a highway to hell.  We finished first in the Open Male 2 Man division running 90.18 miles in 12 hours.  We each ran 45 miles.  Wow, our legs are tired.  Maybe not the best way to kick off marathon training, but what a base!!!

We are currently working with the Terre Haute North Girl's X-Country team and training for the Chicago Marathon.  We plan to participate in the Ragnar Relays in August as part of a 6 man team running 200 miles along the Wisconsin-Minnesota border.  I will keep everyone updated as we get further into our training.
