Would you be down to take a weekend and run across the Mojave Desert with a bunch of awesome women?
Jul 2, 2019
“Hey Lauren, I’ve been thinking about how I have so many badass, smart friends who just happen to be women who love to run. And none of them really know each other and I’m the common denominator so I want to plan a trip for all my badass lady friends to meet each other and run together. ” Onward we went in our three-car support caravan filled with oatmeal, electrolytes, headlamps, tents, 37 avocados , a handle of emergency tequila, and about 150 shower wipes . We found the entrance of Joshua Tree National Park and sent our first runner down the asphalt road with a high-five tunnel and some classic woo-girl “wooWe broke the relay into 6-mile legs. One woman ran while the other 10 shuttled the SUVs to the next exchange and snacked/yoga-ed/chugged water/power-napped while waiting.
On day two, we crossed into the Mojave National Preserve and the thermometer entered triple-digits by 11 a.m. My second leg of the day would start around 2 p.m., so I was thrilled when a breeze started to pick up. But by the time I hit the road, that breeze turned into an 18-mph headwind, akin to running at a full-body hair dryer for nearly an hour. It was the perfect personification of this desert: when you think you have some beautiful relief, it becomes brutal.
This breakthrough led to another: When we weren’t dancing, we voluntarily doubled up and ran together for support. This wasn’t a race, we weren’t trying to set a record, and no one was making us finish this 400-mile run. But we all knew we wanted to finish this thing. Together.
