They wear Courage...The Mother Runners

Love these ladies- love that they wear courage.  After all, fashion is fun, but its what is on the inside that counts.  This past summer, Nena, we will call her the ringleader, began to assemble two teams for the Las Vegas Ragnar.  And she did it- two teams, 24 women, 19 of them from within a two mile radius.  They each are amazing.  They each have their own story of strength and triumph and they put that zeal to the pavement going nearly two nights without sleep and running 3 legs each of the relay ( meaning they each ran anywhere from 13.1 miles to 23.4 miles) and  200 miles combined.

They called themselves the " MOTHER RUNNERS."   I haven't even dared count how many children they have combined--- A LOT!  Some of them were previous runners and some had to begin from the ground up- but they did it!  I think Victoria Secret is Right on "Strong is the New Beautiful."  These women are definitely both.

(*My schedule didn't permit me to join them.  I was off chasing a big 4x7 buck in the Nevada mountains.- maybe next time, but I must say I prayed for them!)
