Great Brazos Relay

Ever wondered what former Great Brazos Relay runners thought about their experience? Aakash, one of our loyal planning committee members, has this to say:

"As a student, I had so many memorable moments as I stayed extremely involved; however, running the Great Brazos Relay with a group of wonderful friends is at the top of my list. As someone who loves to run, I had run my share of half marathons and was ready to try a brand new challenge. 120 miles and run through the night on fairly large highways? Why not! While this wasn't an easy race, I am so happy my friends and I signed up - the 'Seven Deadly Shins' will always be a team.

Now as a staff member, I was given the incredible opportunity to join the GBR committee, and help recreate an event that was absolutely unforgettable for me. I get to to go to work and help plan a race that could leave an incredible impact on our student body, alumni, and the Waco community - can it get any cooler?! I hope our committee can explain to potential participants that this is not just a 120 mile race, but it's also a race that entails a plethora of history - from Baylor to Baylor, in which you start from the historical Independence and end at our current beautiful campus the next day. Sign up everyone - you won't regret it!"
