Here we go! Changes in Altitude, Changes in Attitude!
Trish and Mary---awesome---couldn't have done it without you!
The vehicles: before the mess
Great art work, too!
Like a nice hotel....
Sleeping on the lawn of a beautiful church at one in the morning.
Catherine...trying to get some shut-eye
Dave getting ready to go
More of Catherine trying to sleep.
We tried to take a picture at night....
Randall at night using the Icy-hot stuff
LeighAnn's battle scars...
No pain for her...
Lee gets ready....
Catherine packs up the truck...
The parking lot at 2 am.....a LOT of white vans....
Dave after his record 2.4 mile run!!!!
Dwyane going ***FAST*** at night
Dwyane hands off to Lee...
Our beaten up race numbers...
Dwyane hydrating...probably because he slept about 30 minutes he needs more water!!!
I need a veternarian....because my puppies are SICK!!
OK, this wasn't the “mountain goat” leg, but it sure seemed like it....
Up and up and up and....
Finally over!
Lee done with his last leg...
I wonder how this split compares with my average time divided by my expected time multiplied by 20.5?
My turn....last leg...finally!
Beautiful scenery of NC...this doesn't even do it justice....
Down hill....happy about that...
23+ miles....plus some extra during leg three....
I didn't think I rolled out, but think I am sort of a mild supinator after seeing these pictures....
Still trying to get a word in, even on the road...
Almost done...or am I happy here because I am sure I made the right turn????
Fellas waiting for the team at the Kate-Catherine transition
Having a nice cool drink....
I'm coming up a hill to see Catherine's smiling face...
See her smile!!
I know what is ahead for her...ugh!
Holy Cow...yes it really was a steep as it looks....no joke.
While we were waiting for Catherine....
We took some pictures....
And joked around....
And taked on the phone and walked around....
Looking at the scenery which I actually did not take a picture of....
Because we were too happy to see C-dog booking it around the corner!!!!!!!!
She was just jamming down the hill....
Whooosssshhhh.....
Up a little bump, then down to meet....
the team and....
Wendy! Who is going to bring us home....
She is READY....
Under the bridge...
Awesome!!!!!!! Go Wendy!!!
She TEARS IT UP!!!
Catherine checks her (very fancy) cool heart rate watch.
Done!
“Let me just tell you about that hill, Lee!” “Show you the hand!”
This course is hilly...who knew?
Two stars....after a LONG day....
Now it is up to Wendy to bring us home...
She is like a blur!!!
The teams all came across together...it was cool
Now it is our turn....here comes WENDY!
Looking really strong!
Randall is super happy and proud!!
Smiles all around.
