Just drivin' through Yellowstone....
Yep, I'm Trail Trash.
Meghan helps tame the beast....
Well, I wasn't planning on blogging while I was away at the TransRockies run but, hey my hubby brought along the technology so here I am!We enjoyed a fantastic roadtrip from Banff to Yellowstone and then from Yellowstone to Colorado - and what can I say? I love this country! I looooooooove it! I love the roads and space and ever evolving scenery. I love to just sit back and enjoy the changing sky and landscape. And the company was pretty awesome too!! The lovely Meghan is as fantastic as I knew she would because I am an extremely good judge of character. Hee-hee. Keith of course, kept us entertained by talking for hours and hours and hours. The man can talk when enhanced by caffeinated beverages!
Anyhow, we have arrived in Buena Vista and will start the running tomorrow! At registration, we were blown away with the quality of our nice shiny new bags and the gear we got. Great swag. As an extra bonus we were treated to a real yummy welcome dinner and met up with lots of familiar faces and some new ones from blog world. I am even more excited now and ready to run. Those TransRockies folks sure know how to do it up right!
Off to ride that crazy Jackelope. Did I mention I love this country?
Love those photos! Great post.

Quick note to anyone looking...
ReplyDeleteLeslie and Meghan are having a great time at "Summer Camp" and are sorry they are too busy with happy camper activities (flirting with camp boys, etc)...to write their required letters home...
They promise to update everyone when they return...

Forth place after 5 stages! Only 25 min to make up on third place. It's HAMMER TIME at mile 10 of stage 6!
ReplyDeleteGo team trail trash, go team trail trash, go team trail trash!
OK, I'm a dumb ass, I don't seem to be tracking well today. Soooooo...4th place after four stages. Just a little stage 5 11,500 ft. Mt. to climb before you get to stage 6 and the mile 10 hammer time! Plenty of opportunity to make those runners ahead of you stare at your backsides as you pass them!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
you gals are goof balls! love it!
ReplyDeleteYou two totally kicked arse on leg 5! Nice work! The plan is coming together! Woo Hooo!
ReplyDeleteEric

ReplyDeleteIt is true, somehow, somewhere I have lost my Disco Queen Party Panties. I need to find a replacement. Quick. It's drafty.
