"One Man Down:" Wasatch Back Relay 2008


"One Man Down:" Wasatch Back Relay 2008
This past weekend I ran in the 182 mile relay from Logan to Park City, Utah. There were 12 men on my team titled, you guessed it "One Man Down." There were over 7000 runners on 580 teams competing to finish the race. The race began on Friday and concluded on Saturday afternoon or evening for most teams.
The 12 members on the team are divided in half with 6 in a vehical. The first 6 runners take a leg of the race and then turn it over to the the second team of 6 to run while the first six rest up for their next leg. Each runner runs three legs. Kevin Pinder and Randy Neilson were on my team. We completed the race in 22 hours.
