HIT the Switch in Full Stride
Running the Hood to Coast is a life
changing event. Being on a team is one part, but finding out what
you are made of is another. The below pictures do not begin to depict the
stress, hard work and discomfort that you must endure to complete the
event. With an average of 1 hour sleep in 36 hours, these runners ran
between 15 and 19 miles over hills, in heat and in the dark. It is truly a
test of mental and physical toughness. They are all champions.
