Blue Ridge Relay Scoop - Team 4tunate (to have 2 more runners) 
You call the splash dash “fun”? I call it “hard”.
I got to practice with Kevin on his hardest leg – and wow, I am impressed with you guys doing this!! I’ll try to be at the finish line to cheer you in!
Nice work Kev.in on both the profile and the quality blog you have. I am jealous of the recon you all got in over the weekend and grow more excited about the race with each passing day. Looking forward to it!
Thanks! Yes, the recon was a lot of fun and it certainly has me even more excited! Only a month to go now!
