So, you might wonder why I haven't posted anything ALL WEEKEND. Well, the answer would simply be this: RAGNAR RELAY. Yes, none of you know what that is. Probably best, if your parents are healthy fanatics and love running. It's a 200 mile relay race. This is my fourth one, and it was in VEGAS!!!!! My other ones have been in Utah, but this time we got to make the grueling 11+ (the reason the plus sign is there is because I lost track of hours, seeing as we had to stop in Rexburg and pick up my sister, drive to Provo and drop a piano and trailer at my brothers and sister in laws house, which took about an hour, and then go pick up my other brother.
Then we got to head to Vegas) hours, "sleep" in a car for 2 nights ("sleep" because let's be honest, who can sleep well in a car? Especially when your sister is taking up most of the seat?!), and then leave Saturday night to come home, getting back at 7 a.m. in the morning, shower, and then head straight to Church!!! It was crazy!! So that's what I did this whole weekend. Run. I did it with my family again. In case you're wondering how running 200 miles works, then I'll ease your little minds by explaining a bit more. Each team has 12 people on it, 6 to a van. Van 1 starts first, and the last person in that van hands off to the first person in Van 2, and then once again the last person in Van 2 hands off to Van 1. We do this 3 times, so all of us ran 3 times. I ran around 13 miles. Yes, it was difficult, and everyone in my van (Van 2) had to run in the middle of the night. I ran at 2:00 in the morning and didn't sleep until after that. I was strangely awake though. It would be much more worse if I had to do this in Idaho, and it was much more worse when I did it in Utah, because of the higher elevations. Unlike here, I could actually breathe as I ran, so I got very good times. It normally wouldn't happen, but in Las Vegas I can actually run well!! The only reason we do these is for the cool medals, and this time we got 2. I'll have to post a picture of all of them on here, they're pretty legit and heavy. So after all that fun stuff, my siblings and I got to go and walk around in the Vegas stip!! We went and looked at the Bellagio, the coolest part of the whole thing! It's the casino/hotel that has the shooting water. It was so dang cool! Okay, warning to anyone that goes there: DO NOT take ANYTHING the men on the streets try and give you, and DO NOT look at the ground!! It's all very bad polluting stuff, stuff you DO NOT want to have in you head!! My brother, thankfully, had been there before with his friend who lives there, so he knew what not to do. I'm so glad!!! There were some pretty amazing people there, very interesting. Also you would not believe all the amazing things they have! Oh my goodness I so wish I had brought my camera, it was absolutely amazing!! Okay, next time I go there I'll be sure and bring it, so I can show you guys what I saw! And wow, I saw so many old people in the casinos, wasting money! That's what they do all day! I didn't see any kids, it was all old people! I even saw this grandma! It's crazy what people do with themselves, I would get so restless from doing nothing with my life!!
