Swamp Romp!

We had 2 teams representing Stroller Strides at the Swamp Romp over the weekend. Thanks to Stephanie for all of the photos, and please share if you have any additional! From the looks of it, it was a lot of fun and definitely an adventure! Congrats to all of the ladies that participated!

Stroller Strides at the Swamp Romp

Words cannot describe the muddiness that was Swamp Romp 2010! It was truly a one-of-a-kind race, one that had several of us yelling "What did I get myself into?!" as our teammates had to pull us out of the hip-deep mud.

I'll post more photos as they come in. For now, congratulations to the "Muddie Mommies," Kim M., Teresa, Heather, Susan, Stephanie (CORP), and Liz W., and the "Swampie Striders," Joni, Rayna, Laura O., Jen P., and honorary Striders Carla and Rick. (Rick saved my bacon and pulled me out of the mud in Mile 1. Very glad to have him on the team!)

And congrats go out to Michele and Bridget who also ran the Swamp Romp in separate teams.

Congrats to the GAR runners!

We had quite a showing at today's 8.15 mile Great Aloha Run! Congratulations to the following women from Leeward Oahu!
