Hood To Coast

My friend just sent me this video and I thought it was cool. I've done Hood To Coast a few times but stopped doing it after I had kids and sleep became so very precious to me since I stopped getting very much of it! :) This is definitely a relay race worth doing sometime if you haven't!





Looks like there is going to be a Hood to Coast Film coming out on 1-11-11: http://www.hoodtocoastmovie.com

  2. Hi! Thanks for the follow and kind words! :) Can I just say how much I love your picture, above? You should DEFINITELY do a tri! I can't tell you how awesome it was, you'll have to do it to believe it. It was the most victorious moment of my life to walk out of the water after swimming 300 metres, because at the start I really wasn't sure that I could! I knew then that I was going to do it again. And again. :) Good luck with your first and I can't wait to read all about it here!!

  5. Loved watching the trailer!! I ran H2C in 2009. I won a contest and was put on an elite team (hah!!). They all ran 5 min/miles while I ran 8's. But it was amazing. Cannot wait to see the movie!!

  10. It is a great relay race! For all levels of runners. I've always thought of it as more of a fun race than anything. Unless you're like SUAR and you're on an elite team. I do want to hear about that contest! Everyone decorates their vans/cars and some people really go all out with their outfits. Definitely not a lot of sleep though but a great party at the end. I ran it my last time when I was prego with my first born! I'll have to post some pictures.

  14. This looks like SO much fun, I've been tempted to do this race with some moms from school but it just wasn't the right timing...maybe this year!

  15. That does sound like a ton of fun! I may have to put it on my race list :)
    My two best guy friends supplied me with the p90x dvds, but I think you can find them online. I was never huge into strength training before, but they convinced me to try it, and turns out I love it.
    You should definitely post some H2C pics!! :)
