Ragnar Relays Florida

In case anyone missed the myriad of emails about the topic, The Running Center racing team has a Ragnar Relay team. To be precise we have an "Ultra" team, since we are running it with 1/2 the runners in a standard team (6 v.s 12). We plan to run from Tarpon Springs to Daytona Beach, rain or shine, night and day we will run across Florida. We start on the Howard Park Causeway in Tarpon springs at 2pm on Friday, November 20th and will finish 201 miles later in Daytona Beach. Our finish time is expected to be about 22 hours later or 12 noon just in time for a BIG lunch!

The course goes through some very remote portions of central Florida, including a exchanges 12-15 in the Green Swamp and exchanges 26-28 in Wekiva Springs.

Special thanks to Louis for providing the team transportation and allowing us to "decorate" it with the RC magnets we'll get from Bill D. Also a big special thanks to Lyle, Kristie, Jen and Margarita for volunteering on behalf of the team. We'll see you at your assigned exchanges, wish us well on the way by!
