Because...I like numbers. And so does The Count on Sesame Street. 400. Number of total miles run by 2 teams of bloggers and Nuun employees from Mount Hood to Seaside, Oregon.
27:59. Total Finish Time of Nuun Platuun.
8:24. Pace per mile of Nuun Platuun over entire race.
89. Degrees Fahrenheit during our first legs Friday afternoon. SWEATY SWEATY!
60. Minutes spent "sleeping" Friday night on a tarp somewhere on a field outside Portland. It was like a
scene from a Zombie movie.
2. Hours rest of team spent searching for van keys in middle of dark field. This awesome team member (moi) had no idea this was even occurring.
2:35. Total time I spent running legs 5, 17, and 29.
1. Times I sprinted out of the Van at 4:00 AM into the foggy Oregon countryside to do "you know what" because holding it was not a freaking option anymore.
6. Hours Anthony spent in the car driving from Seattle to Seaside to hang out with me at the end.
6. Cups of regular / chocolate milk consumed over 24 hour period for recovery. (delicious!)
5. Tabs (10 servings) of Nuun consumed over 24 hour period.
3. Minutes I spent puking Saturday night in a random Garden Inn in Portland. TMI? Possibly. Crazy what these things do to your body
though.
9. Place out of 40 of Nuun Platuun in the open women's division.
Infinity. Amount we KICKED SOME BOOTY in Hood to Coast!!!
THANK YOU NUUN AND TEAMMATES FOR MAKING THIS WEEKEND UNBELIEVABLE AND UNFORGETTABLE!

** The key searching time is a total estimate. I think it's about right though!

ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the full recap. I'm positive this requires a trip to yogurtland.
ReplyDeleteRAGNAR!!!
Soudns like a blast! Can't wait to read the rest :)
ReplyDeletePS- can you see the giveaway pics now?
Congrats! I like your colorful outfit :) That is super sweet of Ant to drive 6 hrs!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, my friend was telling me about a team that was desperately looking for their lost keys at one of the exchange points - must have been you guys! Congrats on a great race! You guys rocked it!
ReplyDeleteAll these HTC recaps have me all pee-pants excited for Ragnar. Anthony's pretty awesome for driving all that way to see you :) How presh.
ReplyDeleteFreaking awesome! Relays are seriously the best. You need to come visit me when I come out in 2 weeks for Napa Valley Ragnar I think!
ReplyDeleteYou guys freaking rocked! Can't wait to hear all about it :) And an 8:24 pace for the entire race is AWESOME! Pics please!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing!!! Can't wait for an even more detailed recap ;)
ReplyDeleteAck! It wasn't our key, it was Van 1 of After-Nuun-Delight. It was only about 20 minutes, I think. But everything seems long at 3 a.m.
ReplyDeleteSo thankful to meet you Margs!!! You are so talented!!
ReplyDeleteSounds AMAZING! And I'm so jealous you're already signed up for another relay!
ReplyDeleteGood job girlie!
ReplyDeleteSo amazing! Great job sounds like you all had a blast.

ReplyDeleteWowwwwwwww congrats!
ReplyDeleteAwesome job! Love reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteFantastic!! Glad you had a great time.
ReplyDeleteWoo-hoo! Congrats on finishing! Sounds like it was an amazing weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou guys ran that fast - that field must be competitive. I don't think SoCal Ragnar is that competitive - in fact, the winning open women (I just looked it up) was 29:43. There were only two women ultras this year, and they were 32:14. We can win it next year! Ha! Ok, better start training ASAP so I can get just somewhat remotely close to as fast as you :)
