You may remember my blog post from last year Haney to Harrison 100km Relay w/28 Chicks ...we clearly had a blast and its time to do it all over again.
Only the race has a new venue. EPIC Whistler.

So bring on the inaugural Whistler 50 Relay and Ultra
- We now interrupt this blog post for some music break time. I love this song and it seemed to fit right here cause we'll be on the run this weekend trying to smash last years finish result -
3 teams
- We run like girls
- We run like gentleman
- We run like ladies & lads
24 runners
3 volunteers (shout out to my lovely friends Nicole, Christie and Marella for helping out)
Legs are 8km or 12km
Its been 11 months since I last ran a race
Its been 10 months since someone drove their car head on into my car on Capilano Road
Over 120 visits to Moveo Sport and Rehab for Physio and Acupuncture to deal with consistent nagging nerve pain down my leg stemming from lower back injuries - thanks for the fantastic therapy and support ladies! You are worth the commute to North Van.
Countless hugs and never ending support from friends and family
And so I am a ready to take a small step towards returning to my love of trail running. I'll be running one of the short 8km legs. And hopefully I'll be able to enjoy it. I know I'm lucky to even be able to attempt this so I'll be running with a smile on my face, carrying high hopes for more racing days just like this one - hopefully on trails ;)
I'll leave you with the tunes that will fill my ears while I run and while I cheer on my team mates. Hope you enjoy my playlist. Below the playlist I've included a couple killer music videos from the playlist ~
