Rich, 

I'd be willing to run if you still need someone and can put me on a not too 
high distance set. How long do we have in between each of the three legs?

Nate

We're putting together a relay team for the Tennesse RAGNAR relay race in 
October!  The RAGNAR is an overnight relay race from Chattanooga to Nashville 
in October (more info available below and at: 
https://www.ragnarrelay.com/race/tennessee).


We don't have quite enough runners from ORNL SNS for a full 12-person team and 
are looking for a few more from ORNL who might be interested in running!  We're 
not out to set any course records, but we'll definitely have a good time!  
You'll run three different legs throughout the race, which vary from ~2 to ~9 
miles each.  There are sets of runs for beginners, intermediate runners and 
some more challenging legs!


I'm including the original SNS invite below with additional details.  If you're 
interested, please let me know (cromptonra@xxxxxxxx) and I'll forward on team 
information!

Thanks,

Some of our 11:30 runners think it would be fun to run ~200 miles from 
Chattanooga to Nashville for the Tennessee RAGNAR relay race this October.  
What's more fun than cramming 12 sweaty people into two vans to cheer our 
runners along the 200 mile overnight race?!

This email is to gauge interest in forming a 12-person SNS RAGNAR team.  The 
RAGNAR is a 198.7 mile relay race where one person from the team is always 
running.  Each team member will run three legs, each of which is 2 to 9 miles 
long.  Total distances per runner range from 10 to 20 miles.  The race begins 
the morning of Friday, October 24, 2014 and finishes up on Saturday, October 25 
around 5PM.

The cost is $115/person (plus a share of VAN rentals and GAS), which gets you a 
nice finishers medal and moisture-wicking RAGNAR shirt (plus some pizza and 
adult beverages at the finish).

If we have 12 commitments by June 30, we'll go ahead and register a team!

Please reply to me if you're interested in running and I'll send a follow-up 
email next week to update everyone with where we're at.
