A Little Beach Time




Doesn't Dave look like a runner? Is it the headband, the water bottle, or the bib number on his chest?
Where did we find this ringer? Jeff was a great addition to our team. He was the Roadkill King!
Michelle made it to the beach in record time...nowhere near the speed of Mickey last year, but probably before everyone expected her. She had to look around for the rest of the team so we could all cross the Finish Line at once.







Michelle's commentary after Van 1 was done...

"It was rough, but I am done!" What the heck were we thinking? "Yeah, I did it, no problem"
"Where are our other van members? We are done and we want to get to the beach and take a shower"

Van 2 First Legs







No need to explain these photos...




The beatiful view of Mt. Hood...as we waited for our start time, we could not remember the pain after our third leg last year...still excited and pumped up...ok we were all dead tired because we only got 5 hours sleep...too late to turn back now!

Finally Posting!

I am finally getting around to updating the blog with my (Michelle) pictures.










The trip down to Portland was pretty fun for us girls. We had some fun and started to prepare for the adventure ahead. A little stop off at Cousin's during fair week! Shonny was Grand Champion with her horse and Michelle is Best in Show with her pig Wilma.
