Ragnar NW Passages - The Big Finish

We started this race as mere runners and ended it as Ragnarians!

The Fire Breathing Rubber Duckies finished 200 miles in 32:08:50. Not too shabby for a bunch of old folks. This part was the most stressful for me....my sister was on her way down to the finish with the Girl and they were running late....so they didn't get to see us finish. Van 2 stopped midway through Deidra's last leg to give her water since it got super hot after the fog burned off. And since getting in to the fairgrounds was full of traffic, I was worried that they wouldn't be able to park and make it to the finish in time. They ended up making it just in time and we got ready to make a tunnel for D to run through....


She came along about 3 minutes before our projected finish and we followed her across the line. My sister and girl arrived shortly after.....and missed all the fun. But that's ok....there's always next year!

Victory! 

So, we are doing this again next year, right?

Aaannnndd that's how you finish a 200 mile relay....make out with a unicorn.
