I was in the same van with these awesome ladies!
This is right before the "baton" handoff (we actually had a slap bracelet) for my first leg of the race.
This was at the hand off for my 2nd leg of the race.
This was my last leg of the race coming down Deer Valley Resort. It was a beautiful view. Too bad you can't see it in this picture!
My wonderful team!
