18 hours of Ogden continued.... Alright so with this relay I ended up getting 3 night runs. The 3rd night run destroyed me, I felt like I was in a dream the entire run. Just couldn't get focused, the trail was playing tricks on me with the shadow that the head lamp casted. I ate it hard on this run too!! Lucky I didn't hit my head, hands it the ground first then my head on top of my hands. But no harm done finished and went straight to camp to get my liquid levels up and forced myself to eat because I felt way low on calories. 1 run in the early morn and 1 run right before time expired. Good to have the sun back up made the world of difference to actually see where you are running and to actually get some proper footing on the trail without rolling your ankle. Well overall result was our team ended up getting 22 laps in 18 hours!! Ended up winning the entire thing by one lap. We were the only team with 4 runners and we destroyed the teams with 6 to 8 runners.Ended up getting in 34.20 quality miles in the 18 hours. Planning on doing this event every year from here on out. Was nice to be only 15 minutes away from home the entire time. My kids came up to visit along with my wife, just an overall good experience.
