In the first van, and running in this order were Me, Angela, Ashley, Tristan, Zach, and Heidi. In the second van was Daryl, Amy, Matt, Barry, Erin, and Amber.
I can say that was pretty prepared for the running part of it. What was really tough was running on little to no sleep. Right before my last and final leg I was able to squeeze in about an hour or two of sleep because they let us into the gym of an elementary school. It was a hard floor, but at least I could stretch out. And I was so stressed that I'd oversleep and miss my exchange with Amber that I had a hard time sleeping. It was also very cold that weekend. I was running my last leg at about 4 am and it was 26 degrees outside. As long as I have good gloves I'm usually ok. My face went numb, but that was fine, I could still breathe.
It must not have been that bad though, I've already signed up for another one in January down in Florida. This should be a little easier than Tennessee because there are no hills and it will be in the 50s. My legs are a lot longer, but smooth terrain will make then very doable.
