I ran the Market to Market relay again this year with a group of friends. Slightly different group than last year and I had more confidence going in so I volunteered for some harder assignments. I ended up running the most on my team- about 13.3 miles combined! It's hard on the body, but great for the mind! I ran the last leg of the race this year and it was by far my hardest. Shorty after I started I got a terrible side cramp. I also decided to try running the last leg in shorts- thinking I could control chaffing with some chaff ointments. DIDN'T WORK! My legs got super chaffed and it sucked! Haha, I also learned that running the last leg means that when your team joins you at the end and you cross the finish line- everyone else looks rested and fresh while you look dead and red in the face. Haha. Oh well!
I have thoroughly enjoyed this event the last two years with these women! It's been great and I'm looking forward to next time!
