Pros
  • The Race medals were great.
  • The rest stops were fully stocked with pickle juice, toilet tissue, protein drinks and Gatorade.
Cons

  • No tours were organized by the race director.

Summary

This was the most historic relay race to date. We ran over the Pettus Bridge(Selma to Montgomery) where civil rights leaders travelled over to ensure our freedom. This 51-mile relay with my sorority sisters was life-changing plus we won 1st place!
