Hawthorn Half Day Ultra and Relay












Saturday, Traci convinced me to go to Terre Haute for a 1/2 day ultra/relay.  She ran the entire 12 hours by herself (logging over 50 miles), and I got together some of my current cross country runners for a team of six and myself and three former runners for a team of 4.  Although it was a long, hot day, I am glad that we went.  The race was at Hawthorn Park.  Each team member ran a 5K (3.1 miles) loop at a time and then tagged off to the next runner.  The goal was to run as many loops as possible.  My cross country girls put in over 77 miles and the team I was on did over 75.  I was really proud of everyone's effort!  It was a good way to start the upcoming season!!
