What a fun time!!! Resa, Tim and I did Hood to Coast with a bunch of friends from Nationwide Insurance. We reunited our old Nationwide team, The Asphalt Warriors. This was my first time running the race since before Ellis was born. Many members of our team have been running this race since 1989. Brock was one of the original members of the team in '89. Check out the web site I have linked on the right of the blog for more info about the race. I ran leg #3, 15, and 27. Resa ran #4, 16, and 28. Tim ran #2, 14, and 26.
Here is Tim, John and Ken getting into the groove at the starting line at Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood.
Resa, Tim and I before the race (when we could walk without pain).

Ken getting ready to lead the Asphalt Warriors as our first runner. He had a very tough leg straight down Mt. Hood. (Killer on the legs!)
I had the pleasure of handing off to my sis. I ran leg #3 and Resa ran leg #4. Here she is doing her long, 7 miler in the heat (but with a smile:).
This wonderful gang put together a fabulous Pasta feed the night before the race and took care of van 1 after our first legs. THANKS!!!!!
Resa taking care of her hubby, before his leg. Tim handed off to me. There were 3 Tims on our team. Tim Tyvand thought we should change our name to Three Tims and 9 other people. We vetoed that idea!
Our van however, lacked some creativity, aside from the foot decorating the side mirror.
Ken did not have much time to sleep, because he was busy running and driving. However, we were able to catch his cat nap on film.
Here is our team supporting Tim Dooley as he crested the hardest hill on the course. Way to go TIM!!
More beer at the beach with the entire team, after Scott crossed the finish line.
We had such a great time we are already talking about Hood to Coast 2008.......
