The Relay Marathon

A relay marathon is when a certain number of people

run the full marathon as a relay.

And last weekend I participated in one!!!

Most of my teammates run on a regular basis.

Which I think is crazy.

I obviously am not a runner.

I kind of hate running and avoid it at all costs.

But I am also a sucker for team work.

And when they needed one more runner

I thought, how bad can it be?

(the race started like a stampede of wild horses)

Can you believe how fast these people run?

They were running like it was a 100 meter race.

Granted it's a relay, but still, come on.

I was really nervous when my turn came around.

Mostly because my month of training

mostly consisted of image training.

But huffing and puffing

and occasionally blowing my nose (hay fever)

I managed to finish my run without embarrassing myself.

Whew.
