What an incredible experience!

I don't have any pictures to share but I do want to share some of my feelings. I loved the opportunity I had to work with, learn from and cheer on a great group of women. This race/relay was so much fun and at times harder than I thought I could endure but we did it! At approximately 1:00 am on Saturday I was curled up in a ball in the middle of a field trying to get a little sleep and freezing. Slightly functioning on no sleep and looking at a 3.2 mile run, I wasn't sure I could do it, but I did and I ran it faster than I have ever run 3.2 miles before. On finishing my 3.2 miles I immediately took off my running hat and put on a bike helmet, hopped on the bike and escorted my team mate, Chris, on her 5 mile night run. There are many stories like mine that we could all share. Now that I have had some sleep and got my body back on a normal diet and I still get emotional thinking about this experience, I know the emotions are real and not based on sleep deprivation. Thank you to all of the Shiny Pennies for working hard and following through on your committment. Thank you to my wonderful husband for his love and support, my two daughters that I got to run with, the support of all of our families and the great community we live in! A wonderful experience! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Good job Shiny Pennies
