After all of the drama that went down in preparation for this years WBR....it turned out miraculously well. The Ragnar team was amazing as usual and all of their hard work and dedication paid off big time.
The finish line ended up being at Park City High School this year
(due to the afore mentioned drama)
And it has been by far my favorite finish line..... it just felt right. The right amount of space, the right layout, the right location. Maybe it's just because it actually worked out?!
Dawn breaking over the finish line and set-up crew....Relief.So, as for my actual RAGNAR experience this year; it was the BEST!!
Team S.W.A.T. rocked. I was so excited to have a team that was willing to have fun
and be crazy.....it was a blast :)
We tie-dyed these shirts and bandannas ourselves and then had Tash order sweat bands and socks. We had our shirts screen printed by Scoreboard Sports and Kevin just happened to have an extra pair of these rockin' shorts. Lucky me!
I didn't try them on before race day and so when actually on I was a little embarrassed....I haven't worn shorts this short since I was 5! Needless to say, I was trying to cover up my white legs most of the morning.
My super hot trash talkin' van-mates.....
