Wow, that was epic!

A couple weekends ago, I participated in a running relay race from Cache Valley to the Tetons! It is called the EPIC relay. It was so much fun! My sister and some people from her work, and from their family's work, and random friends were all those who made up the team. There were 12 people on the team which ran a total of 190 miles. It definitely was epic! We were split into two vehicles and I was part of the first. We started our journey at Skyview High and from there ran like the wind!

Rhonda is all ready to go!
Greg...
Me...
Ashley...
Amy and Ryan...
The girls!
Sistas!
Vehicle 1! (Pretty much the most awesome vehicle of runners ever)
After our first set of runs, we had some lunch in Preston and then chilled at the park. Then it was on to our night runs! Luckily and beautifully, it was a full moon!
After our second set of runs, we set up our sleeping bags in a park in Freedom, Wyoming. When we woke up, we had frost all around us. It was freezing! Our last set of runs took us from Freedom, Wyoming almost to Hoback Junction. It was so beautiful! We ran into this golden fellow...
And these fine flowers...

After we handed off to the other vehicle, we headed to a gym and took some much-needed showers. Then it was off to Billy's for the most awesome burgers and fries in the world. Not joking. Soooooo good!
We chilled in Jackson and shopped for bit. Then we headed to Teton village to wait for the rest of the team to finish. And finish we did!

It was such a fun weekend! And wow, that was epic!
