Running The Relay race #EatBlogRun style

This past weekend, I had the pleasure of running The Relay race – a 199 mile race from Calistoga (in the Napa Valley wine region of California) to Davenport (on the coast of California a little north of Santa Cruz). I have run this race before, twice, about 10 years ago in 1999 and 2000. It is always a special race, because it is a team thing. You spend about 36 hours (or more if you dine together the night before the race and again after the race) with these people and really have to work together to get it all done.

I have A LOT more to write about this race….it was life changing/affirming in many ways. I LOVED this team – every single person is amazing and funny and smart.

For now, check out our team blog, Eat. Blog. Run. – photos and stories will be going up there. You can also check out the (very funny!) twitter stream from the race at #eatblogrun.
