Has anyone run a Ragnar race before? Please share your experience or if you looked into it. I'm considering this and would love more info.

    My sis-in-law is running one in July. I can ask her for some details if you like. :)

    Trail_Addict just finished one today. Send him a message if he doesn't see this post, he might be sleeping. :smile:

    I did the Washington, DC race this past fall with a team that was mostly made up of my marathon training pace group and we had a BLAST. We were all completely wiped out at the end (PLAN that you won't sleep, but try really hard to) but have all signed up to do it again this fall. The most important thing is having a good attitude about close quarters with your teammates and the funky smell that your van inevitably will have.

    It's more about the experience and less about the running. Logistics and directions are WAY more important, as is a good attitude. You do need to be in good shape, though, and able to run for at least 12 miles minimum (combined). If you're not a social runner, it's probably not your cup of tea. But if you are, Do it! Or find another relay - it's a ton of fun.

    I did the original Miami to Key West. Loved it. Would do it again in a heart beat if I could recruit other runners to commit!!!
