MESQUITE CANYON 50 KM
PHOENIX AZ
This was a run of many FIRSTS:
1.We actually booked the holiday BEFORE I found the run (as opposed to booking a holiday around a run)
2. My husband and I ran together as a TEAM (and not competing against each other)
3. First HOT run for me in the desert - ever.
4. First time I threw the 'competitiveness' out the window and planned to just FINISH ! = stress free fun!
So, I summarized the run into this short video. Unfortunately, I could not video some of the more CRAZYFUN TECHNICAL parts cuz, well, I was busy trying to not kill myself. Ha ha !

Stats for the run: for my future reference:
Calories- about 1000. Larabar, chips, honeywaffle, carbopro
Salt Tabs- about 7
Water- 7 liters ! yikes! and only pee'd once ! das hot!
Time- 7 hours
Funny: Hubby asked me to "let him win - by a second" ...so, I did. But apparently we got our bibs switched and I ended up beating him by a second! ha ha !
Post run- felt great, no headache/nausea, still married . Good recovery.
