Pre-race routine:

Drop off the runners. Ate a clif bar and drank some water. Had a couple cups of coffee a few potty breaks as it was 3 hours until I ran. Got up early picked up the race van and met the team. Drove to Haney to get the first runner ready to run. Seen her off and drove to leg 2 to meet and give number to leg 2 runner. Seen her off and drove behind her to bug the hell out of her when she was running, lots of screaming involved in that one.
Event warmup:

Got out of the van about 1/2 mile before the leg exchange and decided to run/walk around. Got my jacket and pants off and touque and gave it to a team member. Got my chip and ran.

Event comments:

Just a big race. Some of it on highways. Hard to run with cars coming at you. Its a good race well organized in some spots. not so much in others.
I like it cause you are with a team and you can yell at people. Also, this year, I chased one of the team mates with a stick. Hillarious.
I had a hard time on the second leg. Ran 23-24 K in total this race

Performance: Good
Ran behind a guy going for 103. Kept with him most of the way seen him @ the finish and thanked him for pacing me. Told him he was a good rabbit. My team bugged me when I was running around. It was prett good. I still can not believe I ran that fast.
Course: Leg 3(Steep uphill, steady downhill) Stave Lake Dam to Mission Municipal Hall. Cross over both dams and climb steeply uphill for 1 km. After short downhill, road continues uphill to Mill Pond, then continues downhill to Dewdney Trunk Road. Road becomes undulating. Stay left and continue along Dewdney Trunk Road until Exchange 3 at Stave Lake Street, at the Mission Municipal Hall

Just a fun race.
We were running fast and having a good time.
My friend that blew his hammy, is doing well, he has to go to physio and take a few days off of work. But other than that he is good.
I am super stiff today.
During my second leg, I just kept thinking, its like doing a tri, now you have finish it off! Just keep running. Too much food in my stomach for the second one but all in all I did well.
