ragnar relay Wasatch back

The middle of June I ran in the ragnar relay Wasatch back , it is a run from Logan to Park City and there are 12 members of the relay team. All together I ran about 18 mi. It was fun and surprisingly hard, braking it up into 3 runs in the space of 2 days gives your body time to get tired and ready to recover but does not recover, it may not sound that hard (it did not sound hard to me) but wow was my body sore. I most enjoyed applying the experience to life. We are blessed with a group of people to help us through life, family friends...being around them is usually encouraging, but everyone has to take their own turn with trials (has to run alone) we can get encouragement along the way but we can not take the trials away, this life is for us to grow and no one can take our place if we want to grow. I also like how your run would end and you would have time to rest and help encourage the other runners on there turn, then you get back out for another run. So symbolic to me of life, how blessed I am to have a great support team cheering me on through my trials and life. All in all a great experience.
