running & eating

We started off as a group of 12 runners who shared a common interest to physically challenge ourselves during Ragnar Southern California. Ragnar SoCal is a 200 mile relay race that spans over 2 days and 1 night, starting in Huntington Beach and finishing on Coronado Beach. Every member of our team was no more than acquaintances prior to this event. To liven up the stakes, we decided to go against common race procedure by jamming 12 people into one van rather than splitting into two vans. We entered the van on race morning with childish ambition and mature skepticism. 

The journey tested our physical, as well as our emotional limits. The accomplishment of finishing Ragnar not only made us stronger individuals but also created a strong camaraderie between runners that can only be explained as One Van, One Fam. 

Now we want to participate in Ragnar Napa Valley. We know we can complete the event, so we decided to use our physical capabilities to support, Limbs for Life, a charity that provides fully functional prosthetic care to individuals that cannot otherwise afford it.
