wasatch back

This year, our wasatch back team had a super awesome inspiration by the name of Stephanie Nielson. RUN for NIE was our team name and we ran with pride. When i felt like i couldn't go anymore, i thought of her. When my body ached and i didn't want to run anymore, i did for her. And you know what, she ran too...across the finish line... with the team! What a trooper for being there in the rain to cheer us on, feed us cupcakes, eat dinner with us and give us encouraging words! Our team definately had more "umph" in us to keep on runnin....and that is just what we did...for 2 days straight on 2 hours of sleep! cant wait till next year! Thanks team!
2 hours of sleep..literally. ready to attack my big hill at 6am. Lovely right?
Mom looking HOT in her reflective vest with matching head lamp.
Pops lookin like a true iron-man with a bonus smile!
Just a little wasatch back fun at our exchange.
We had a super fun time this year and a few tummy aches also. I literally can't wait until next year. I love this race and loved training for it too.
So when is our pizza party reunion team?

Way to go! This race seriously looks like so much fun! I feel so bad we came to your house so late the night before! If we'd have known the race was the next morning we would have skipped out on the visit. How did your team do? You guys are amazing!
