Insanity

There's this relay race called the Wasatch_Back that goes from Logan to Park City. Teams of twelve (crazy) or six (completely insane) people run 3 legs each, for as long as it takes to finish. 24 hours, 36 hours, whatever.

My "friend" (Really, is she my friend? If she really loved me, would she want me to risk leaving my children motherless?) Sara has organized a team and in a moment when I'd apparently completely lost my mind, I agreed to participate.

We had a Team Meeting tonight and luckily, the other girls on my team took one look at my butt and gave me the easiest legs. Seriously. I'm Runner Two -- this is my first_leg, second_leg, and third_leg. Look at this. Or this. Why, why, WHY would you do that? I just don't know.

Last week, we had to send in our per mile time and then the organizers assign you a start time based on your team's average pace. I guess they want everyone to finish at roughly the same time. The relay takes place June 20-21 . . . I'm guessing that our start time will be sometime in the middle of May.

In all honesty, the main reason I went to the meeting was to see if I was the fattest girl there. Don't worry. I totally was.
