Another AMAZING weekend of PTC (Portland To Coast) is in the books. This year it was actually moved south to Oaks Park for the start line, so we added a couple of miles and it was 132 miles this year.
This photos just dumped in, no particular order.
I love these gals/guys and if it wasn't for Relay, I wouldn't know any of them...and in a sweet twist of faith, Mary and I found each other both at the starting line and exchange #18....Mary is the reason I started Relay, so it's always great seeing her during PTC too!
Added bonus this year, our TSP (Team Slow Poke) team raised $10,700 for ACS and this was AFTER we all had fundraised for Relay all year long!
