The 2013 year was marked with substitutes and speed. We missed many of the core people we had from the previous year. Bridget couldn’t run with Nixon in her belly. Anya and Erin had moved to different parts of the country. And Meghan couldn’t join us for another year again. (We later found out Anya and Meghan were both expecting as well!) And Paul couldn’t commit this year since he was on the cusp of graduation. That left 5 spots to fill.
The people we brought in though were equally fast. And we settled into our target, to break 23 hours. (Personally, breaking 24 hours will always be my goal, and anything additional is icing on the cake.)
This year though I had a mentally tough leg, not a physically tough. Yes, I had the dreaded 12th leg, the last leg, which I wanted to just get over to mark off the bucket list. And so we ventured off to our destination, as I was the anchor. And with perfect conditions, for the RTO, we flipping rocked it. Our fearless command in our van was Bridget. She barked orders, drove us around as if we were kids in a soccer game, and raced us from point to point.
By the end of it, we broke our time from the previous years, and earned an overall 14th place, with a 5th division place. Not too shabby for the “Where’s …” crew.
Until next year!
