Running 200 miles with 11 strangers in 1 stinky van was quite the experience! Not sure what I'll remember more...waking up in my sleep screaming "grandma, grandma, grandma", with 5 girls who knew very little about me and less about my wild sleeping habits, or running alone through Santa Monica at 1am on empty streets except for the homeless bums on the sidewalk. It's amazing how fast you can run when you're scared!
We had an amazing italian dinner at Boccali's in Ojai, CA where they grow their own produce behind the restaurant! So hippie in every way and I absoloutely loved it!

Alot of teams sported some crazy costumes!
Yea definately not brave enough to sport this running attire...just picture the jiggalage! (if that's a word)
Instead I rocked this attire. Don't worry though I had a change of clothes for all three of my legs. I was a stinky mess...especially after we crashed in a park to sleep for 2 hours and a family of skunks decided to spray right next to us! Just another reason to dislike creatures.
Cynthia and I before my last leg of 7.0 miles along the PCH. Thank goodness the beach scenery was beautiful because my legs definately were ready to stop at this point!
I found this awesome "jail bird" along the way to keep pace with. She literally saved me and kept me going!
the six of us...
road in this for 200 miles without showers
and then met up with the whole crew at the finish line in Dana Point
Oh and Krystal, to answer your question, Ragnar really is as fun as everyone says it is! I highly recommend it.
