Mickelson Trail Marathon Recap

Recently, Annie, Larissa, Kendra, Kannon, and Tenise relayed the Mickelson Trail Marathon. They did great!! This picture is their approximate time. I think they finished about five minutes faster than this, but we forgot a phot until later.
Here is Kannon after running the final leg. She actually had to run a mile further than she had trained for or anticipated. She did great! On a side note: This is the first time I have seen Kannon wear anything other than high heels. Seriously, this girl wears heels camping!

Here is Tenise finishing strong on her 5 mile leg. She had planned to run 6, but evidently they marked the trail out differently, thus the reason Kannon had to run extra.

Here is Ris finishing up her leg of the relay. She was showing off here.

Kendra is pounding out her leg of the journey. She is used to pushing two kids in a side-by-side jogging stroller that is almost as tall as she is. This worked to her advantage since her leg was uphill.

Here is Annie finishing up her leg. She ran the first and longest leg of 8 miles. She finished looking like she could have ran much longer. Some of her splits were 8.5 minute miles - much faster than she thought

Here are the two sisters (our cousins). The team name was Gypsy Joggers. They took the team name to a whole 'notha level by dressing the part of Gypsies!

Here is the team at the finish line in beautiful Deadwood.
