As you may know,
Insulindependence
has an all type 1 diabetics team running in the
Ragnar Relay Del Sol
on February 27th and 28th. This is a twelve runner relay covering 194.3 miles from Prescott to Mesa, Arizona, with each runner covering from 10 to 18 miles divided into three sections. If you're familiar with multi-day relays like Hood to Coast, Reach the Beach, or one of the other Ragnar events, this is the same sort of thing. Well, we've lost a few runners due to injuries and other commitments, and we need more type 1 diabetic runners to fill out the team. If you're interested in this adventure, and you think you could run about 5 miles 3 times within a period of about 20 hours, please drop me a line at jpnairn at gmail dot com. Registration is already paid, and the team will provide food and refreshments, and a technical running shirt, during the race. Each runner is responsible for their own travel arrangements. We are not an especially competitive team. We are not in this to win the event. The main objective is to raise awareness about diabetes and exercise, and to bring together some like-minded diabetic athletes... to have a blast.
He who has the best time wins.

Wish I was in shape to do it, but not so much right now. Sounds like lots of fun! Hope you guys have a blast.
