We placed 7th out of 12 teams in the Women's Regular Open Division.
We placed 292 out of 454 teams overall.
What an interesting race experience. The team of 12 each has 3 legs to run, all different distances. My 1st leg was 2.69 miles (took me 26:46). My 2nd leg was 7.62 miles (took me 1:26:34). This was in the middle of the night running on Key Largo. I had some major leg pain after this run, wasn't sure I would be able to run again. I could only wait to see what would happen. It didn't feel like a bleed. After a few hours of rest, I felt like I could complete my part. My last leg was 2.02 miles (took me 21:49). My knee gave me troubles after this leg, due to running on gravel, which is not normal for me. I factored up, iced it, rested and kept my knee brace on for the next couple days. No further factor was needed. Whew!
The above picture is of the entire team after the race had been completed. As you can see, I am wearing my knee brace for a bit of extra support.
This picture is of those of us who rode in Van 1.
