How to Follow Kelsey's Race on Reunion

Hi everyone,

Thank you for the incredible support that you have showed me over the last few weeks. As I get ready for my race (we're leaving for the start line in 1 hour!) I hold each of you in my heart and in my thoughts. Your belief helps me to soar out there on the trails!

Today's race starts at 9pm here on La Réunion and 2:30pm Newfoundland Time (that's 1pm ET and 2pm AT). The race is called the Diagonale des Fous and my bib number is 1989 (which makes me think about Taylor Swift...it is the eve of her new album after all. It's also the first year the Grand Raid was held, so that's a good omen I think!).

There are many different ways to follow along with the race, so many that Adam (my partner), made an entire document to help you figure out the best ways for you to tune in.

If you just want one place to go, I suggest my runner profile at this link. We'll also be updating my Instagram account while I'm out there, so take a look at that too.

Earlier today, as I was packing for the race, I recorded a quick video for all of you. Watch it here!

Lastly, thank you, merci mille fois, for all that you have done to help me get to this point in my running adventures. Okay, time to go. Let's run! Wooohoooooo!

-Kelsey (and Adam)
