Sole Sisters Take to the Road & Back to Our Roots!

Well the Sole Sisters took on another Ragnar - not exactly a TSN for 2015, but elements of it sure were!  Where to begin............................

In case you don't know, Ragnar is an overnight relay of 12 people that run continuously from one point to another point (generally a total of ~ 200 miles). In this case, we ran from Miami, FL to Key West, FL.  Definitely one of the best ones we've done!! Warm (in February), flat (except for bridges), and ends at a beach!   Our team consisted of primarily friends but we had two drop outs so we found some strangers and some were stranger than others!  Our team name was Team Mimsy and long story short, it's from an old fifties ad about keeping our girlie bits clean.  Mimsy = Girlie bits. 

The name came about after a fitathalon challenge in the summer heat and a few bottles of "celebration wine."  That's probably enough info though!

Here's the whole team at the finish, but boy do we have some stories leading up to the finish... and maybe a few after ;-)

In an effort to keep this post short (and well, it might be broken into more than one), I'm making a list of TSNs for the Sole Sisters during the Ragnar adventure.

1. TSN Molly - Miami and Key West

2. TSN Erem - CONCH! fritters

3. TSN Andrea - Ragner with her hubby

4. TSN Amorette - running the team in as the last runner (and um, running on percocet...another story for another day....)

5. TSN Amorette, Molly, Andrea, Erem - E11even (club) in Miami and worth another post on its own!

6. TSN Molly & Andrea - Ragnar during a Kelly's Boot Camp Contest (required very careful eating and drinking to stay healthy)

7. TSN Molly, Erem & Amorette - singing outloud in Irish Kevin's in Key West

8. TSN Molly, Erem, Andrea & Amorette - coochie coupons

I'm sure there are more......... but for now here are some pics from our adventure!  Loved, loved, loved running with these ladies again!

Erem stretching after finishing her second run - it was during the hottest part of the day!! She did AWESOME!

Hanging out with the Ragnar King - of course!

Done! at the finish

It's not a Ragnar unless someone runs almost naked!

Andrea was running while the rest of us were just standing around, posing for pics.... (Sorry Dre - we love you!)

Another one at the finish

At the first major exchange, when Van 2 started running for the first time.

Waiting at the next major exchange for Erem to come in so Van 1 could start their 2nd legs!

Breakfast break on the 2nd day and the best looking couple of Ragnar!

Erem is ready to run!!!

Molly finishing up her first leg! GO MOLLY!

Channeling Kelly at the finish - showing her we DO read her emails ;)

Ragnar cuteness.

Few more shots from breakfast on the 2nd day.

Van 2 (where the Sole Sisters lived for 33 (or so) hours) before our start!
