Lucky No. 7

They say when life hands you lemons, you should make lemonade. But what happens when life hands you nuun and the opportunity of a lifetime?

Well, you still make lemonade. Duh.



Nuun decided to name the Hood to Coast teams this year after its summer flavors, which are totes delish by the way, and I'll be representing on Team Lemonade. Probably because I can be a bit sour at times. Or because I'm bright and refreshing. Or because I look really good in yellow. Or because they did a random team generator thingy in a top secret lab.

Anyway, my cohorts in this sweaty journey will be:

Van 1
Leslie of Triathlete Treats
Lisa of Lisa Runs for Cupcakes
Jolene of Journey of a Canuck Mom on the Run
Andrea of the MF Dre
Kristen of Defy Your Limitations

Van 2
Me of this blog
Karen of Reasons to Play
Jesica of rUnladylike
Jenny of We Wander and Ponder
Holly of Leaps of Faith

I'm runner No. 7, which means I'll be the first runner in Van 2 and I'll be taking on 16.21 miles of rolling hills, long inclines and some sweet declines. And then some more inclines. I do remember requesting this spot, which ranks No. 8 in terms of mileage and fifth for difficulty, so I'm not allowed to bitch about the hills come August.

At least not publicly. (And note: I just typed pubicly but probably because Mark hasn't made me coffee yet.)

To get acquainted with Team Watermelon, check out the blogs of these lovely ladies: Mallory of Run Eat Run Eat; Kara of Welcome to Karadise; Hannah of Fit Girl. Happy Girl.; Sarah of Run Far Girl; Catey of Random Thoughts from the Zoo; Meghan of Shoe Stories; Megan of Meg Runner Girl; Lisa of RunWiki; Lindsay of Twisted Running; and Devon of Dev on Running.
