It's race weekend in the gorgeous Jungfrau region of central Switzerland. This year we are here with our friend Laura, and her family. Like Derek and I two years ago, this will be her first marathon...what a way to ease into the distance! I am so super excited to be with another crazy women to take this on together. We arrived in Interlaken to retrieve our start bibs and balloons for the kiddos before making the trip up to our weekend chalet in Wengen.
Racers: ready.
Team Strom, all set for our third start of the Jungfrau Marathon!
Our weekend crew: runners, support, and cheering section on the cogwheel. Up we go!
We settled into the lovely chalet for dinner, some alpenglow, and early to bed. There's been lots of nerves and uncertainty leading into tomorrow's race, but crossing our fingers that our bodies will cooperate and the weather will be kind so that the stunning views can carry us along. See you in the morning, Jungfrau!
