The last two legs of the relay.
Hey everyone! I am updating this blog from the last two legs. Can't leave out any minute!
Courtney is finishing strong from his massive hill run... passing on to Lauren . You killed that leg Court! Only 2 legs to go!
P.S. When Court was running, Van 2 witnesses an shady exchange we thought might have been a narcotics deal... we don't have pictures due to the fear that we would be followed if they noticed.
Lauren is all smiles even though she is doing a grueling, steep 500 foot climb. You go Lauren!
We see Lauren coming through to the Exchange... 1 leg to go. Cindy brings it home!
