First annual Ragnar Relay
The first annual Ragnar Relay in New York took place on May 15 and 16. It traveled on back roads from Woodstock to New York City. Imagine this:
You and 11 of your closest friends running day and night, relay-style, through some of the most scenic terrain North America could muster. Add in live bands, inside jokes and a mild case of sleep deprivation. The result? Some call it a slumber party without sleep, pillows or deodorant. We call it a Ragnar Relay!
Check out Bob's Lane for his take! Click here for pictures!
Keep posted to the Sound Runner page for details on the relay from New Haven to Boston…we are already planning our strategy.
