Resurrection

Ye of little faith. The Chasqui blog lives. We as Chasquis need our forum, our mortar that holds us all together despite great distances. It's the soul of the tribe we find ourselves in.

Ragnar Wasatch Back was 3 months ago. Warny is the only one who had the soul enough to write leg reviews. Where is the Chasqui spirit in the rest of the fearless 11? We are better than that guys. I know we are. I know I wasn't there for this one, but I'm back in the fold and ready to shepard us all to the promised land in the valley of sin for Ragnar LV. Who is psyched about that? Well it is only 1 month away. 1 month! Can you hear me? I'm very excited about the race and the Chasquis who are undertaking the challenge. Can't wait to toe the line at the Valley of Fire with you all. Keep training.

Lisel and Margaret (and anyone else I may not know about)- You girls work on kickin the St George Marathon in the nuts then you'll get down here and show us how its done. Good luck!!

Chasqui's JB and Nick- Psyched to spend Sat morning with you out at Lake LV for the Amica Triathlon. The Chasqui relay will certainly create a dust storm.

Big welcome to the youngest Chasqui. Chasqui Tristan (14) will be swimming as part of the Chasqui relay at the Lake LV Triathlon this Sat. Welcome boy!! Start 'em young.

I'm going to let it rip Sat morning as well. I'm going to go solo on the intermediate distance. Individually, each leg no problem. Toss them all together like a nice fruit salad and I don't know what I'll get. Goals: 1st out of the water, top 5 in age group, 2:30 time. Let's get it on!!

Some other Chasqui's were busy this summer. Deseprado Dual Bike Ride, Open water swims in California, a running race here and there. If you have done an event let's hear about it.

At least for mine and JB's amusement, I'm going to start to post regularly. Stay tunded for pics and re-caps of the Lake LV Tri next week. Remember Ragnar is only 1 month away.

JB- Send out a group email reminding all about the blog. Anyone can post, anyone can comment.

I'm new to team Chasqui so I'm not an author on the blog so I can only leave commnets. I would love to read leg reviews of past Ragnars so I can prepare myself to run with you Chasquis for Ragnar LV. My latest run was the Disneyland half marathon this past weekend. I beat my goal by 2 minutes so I was happy with my time. Looking forward to Ragnar!

Scroll trough the older posts. There are plenty of leg re-caps. Well, not as many as there could be, you hear me Wasatch Backer's of 2009? JB will post log in info so all who want to can post. I'd love to hear about the 1/2 marathon you just completed. Well done!!
