I discovered the Ragnar Relay yesterday. I. Want. To. Do. This.
What is the Ragnar Relay you ask? 12 person relay team, 200(ish) miles, everyone runs 3 legs (varying in length between 3 and 8 miles), race lasts 24 hours. Oh, and the race doesn't stop for night time. That is 24 hours straight.
There are 12 races a year. I am thinking doing one in March, April or May would work well. Gives us plenty of time to get 12 people together, coordinate the logistics, etc.
So who is with me? So far I have 5 people VERY interested in joining me and a strong MAYBE from one other. So I need 6 or 7 RELIABLE people to pledge their word (and money). If we did the race in March, the Texas race (180 mile route from San Antonio to Austin), we would need to pay by September 2009 to get the early reg discount (cost around $1100 total). I think that race is a good one to aim for.
I am doing this. You will be joining me. Let's talk.
