Comments:

This was a fun race. I ran it with my wife and roommate from college and his brother. I ran the 4th leg and managed to push a pretty decent pace considering that I had done 20 miles the day before. The first lap kind of tough on the legs but I ran well. The second was a little slower. By the third lap I couldn't definitely feel the fatigue on the hills. The last lap I knew I could leave it all out on the course so I gave it all I had. It was a great event and really different. It was fun to be able to watch everyone else in between running our laps. The 45 minutes between laps seemed to fly by. We ended up finishing 8th in the 4 person coed division.
