    A picture of Blaze (team shepherd's mascot & guardian) was posted on RAAM's facebook page a short time ago.

    Looks like Team Shepard is going great! They're 394 miles in with a blazing average of 18.5. Way to go ladies!!!

    Thanks everyone for the love and support! It really helped when things weren't going great. Due to the rotation that never quite went according to plan at first, it seemed like Kacie ended up riding in the dark for the first 3 or 4 days, and my shift never had time to sleep. Knowing you guys were cheering us on was so helpful for me!

    I absolutely loved every minute of riding - it's everything else that was hard. The riding is exactly what I've been training to do - just point me in the right direction (typically, EAST!) and I'll just go until you tell me to stop. I did better than I ever expected to, especially coming in so late in the game, so I'm thrilled to have completed it.

    I want to make a very public special thanks to Kacie for inviting me onto this adventure. I hope I can do it again, maybe on a smaller team so I can get more riding in!!!!
