10:00am Set-up and Celebration
No words, just photos and captions.
10:58am The Penitentiary
Ha! Put Matt Wolf and his son, Brady Wolf, in jail. Jail Rules: Someone bids an amount to send you to jail and the prisoner must raise a matching amount by begging nearby Relayers. How humiliating.
11:17am Child Exploitation
Again, we use Brady Wolf to raise money for RFL. Child exploitation? Maybe. Shameless? Also maybe.
11:23am MRun
You know who's crazy? MRun. They are trying to run 2,000 laps around Palmer. Tess followed suit by running two laps. Good work--only 1,998 to go!
12:12pm Young Gunners in Jail
These kids were a hoot. They couldn't care less that they were in jail, as long as they got 'Likes' for their Facebook page. Go figure.
12:49pm LUNCHTIME
Relay always delivers when it comes to lunch. And by deliver, I mean Olive Garden, Jimmy Johns, and Buffalo Wild Wings. Yup, get jealous. Also, Dominick has fired up the grill and we are eating great over here. Get jealous again.
12:54pm MRun Board Update
How's MRun doing on their 2000 lap goal? Let's find out.
2:01pm Volleyball
Pill Pushers (Frank Bertone, Corey Edge, Rachel Lebovic, and I) are ready to dominate. brb.
2:30pm: Dominated the first game. Frank Bertone with the game-winning spike.
3:30pm: Lost second game. Oh well.
2:45pm Benjamin Franklin
Holy two-headed goats Batman! Someone just donated $100 to put two people in jail for $50 each.
3:46pm Friendly Fire
Betrayal! Help stop P3-on-P3 violence!
4:00pm UM Football
Fancy seeing you here, Denard Robinson. It's too bad you declined my invitation to race you in a 40-yard dash. I would've taken it easy on you.
5:00pm Dodgeball
No pics because I was too busy dodging, dipping, ducking, diving, and dodging. We won our first game then got smoked by MRun. Athletes vs Scientists. Just sayin'.
5:51pm Dinnertime
Taking a short break to make a burger and play some Euchre. Don't bother us.
6:38pm Cornhole
Goofy name for a great game.
7:05pm Fundraising and 24-hour club update

Aren't we adorable?
Random MRun Update:
821 Laps. Almost to 2,011 laps...right.
8:35pm Go Michigan Hockey
AFK for a bit because of the Ceremonies, but we're back now. Before I forget, I would like to showcase what Jaclyn O'Connor created for our team:
11:19PM YOU CAN'T JAIL THE SHERIFF
SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY, DOMINICK, DENNIS, AND I WERE THROWN IN JAIL. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE WE ARE THE SHERIFFS. CAPS LOCK MEANS I'M YELLING AND NOT HAPPY.
11:27pm Creativity
The Michigan Difference at work. Making a human pyramid to raise funds in jail.
EDIT: Adina Feng put both Dennis and me in jail. Jordan Smith put Dominick in jail for $36. Once Dennis got out, he dropped $20 to bail Dominick out. Got to help a brother out.
11:48pm Nightshot of Relay
~3:00am "Good Morning!!!!"
Erin Gulbransen jumps on me asking why I am sleeping. I am not amused.
7:33am Good Morning for Real & Site Take-down
The dew forms on the Air Mattress and begins to soak through my sleeping bag. Perhaps now is a good time to get up and help undo the campsite.
8:58am Random MRun Update
Remember when MRun decided to ambitiously run 2,011 laps around Palmer? Let's see how they are doing.
Still running at the break of dawn
Success! Notice the line at 2,000 laps (500 miles).
Also notice the tiny note at the top of the board.
It says, "Random Guy in UofM Hockey Jersey"
It's our very own, Jordan Smith, 24-hours later!

12:12pm Young Gunners in Jail
These kids were a hoot. They couldn't care less that they were in jail, as long as they got 'Likes' for their Facebook page. Go figure.
"Do it for the kids!" they kept shouting, but no one did.
Honorable mention: FunKtion dance member dances for change.
Put in for sleeping in. This is what you get.

9:04pm Luminaria Ceremony and Silent Lap
Didn't snap as many pics as I had wanted to because it was very dusty and my eyes were tearing up because of the dust. Also, someone was chopping onions nearby. This heartwarming ceremony shows us the direct impact of Relay for Life.
