Wasatch Back Relay
 

I thought it deserved its own thread. Thanks for the shoe feedback and I'll probably pick some shoes up.

Last night it dawned on me that I should start incorporating hills in my training so I've got a bunch of up hill runs planned.

In case you're interested here is a google map I put together of the relay and the legs:

It might not be 100% accurate but it was the best I could do.

I have to update the last two legs. Those have been updated with the race bible revisions.

I am jealous. I would really love to participate in something like this. Sounds like a lot of fun. When I was up in Oregon I knew some people that were doing Hood to Coast, but that was before I ran so I did not participate. Maybe one of these years I can plan on being in utah for this thing and can find a team.

cougarguard team next year?

I might consider it.

We could have big piney, runner coug, sea chicken fuegote, blue goose, Mike's sister in law and who else?

Don't forget SteelBlue, just so long as his fragile ITB holds up.

I'd definitely be interested if you're looking for someone to balance out all the fast guys. :)

Yeah, whatever, Mr. 3:20 marathon.

I like that map, thanks. It definitely makes you realize how long the relay really is.

So could someone less lazy than I please enlighten me on the basics of how it works? How many total miles? How many runners per team and how many legs per runner?

Thanks.
