Happy Memorial Day

Thank you soldiers for our FREEDOM!

We had pouring down rain all Friday evening through Saturday morning... luckily it had stopped in time for our training!

This season we have been so blessed by not having to deal with rain during our training! NO Rain... whoo hoo!!!! For that I am very Grateful!

This Sat was our last training as a team.... bittersweet... but yet exciting too! Because Rock'n'roll is almost here! We had a blast out on the dry trail, we only ran 10 miles.... but it was a little rough on my feet! I bought some insole inserts for extra cushion on my feet but I didn't know that i needed to take out the old insoles... so I couldn't feel my toes after a mile of running! Needless to say, the inserts came out and i was fine! We also cheered on the new TNT team for the Fall season as they ran 2 miles yesterday. It was really special for me because my friend Amantha is on this team. She is a swing dancer and has never ran more than 2 miles in her life... She is now training for her first 26.2 miler!!! I am proud of her and she was so sweet to tell me that I inspired her! That is so sweet!!!

Their was an accident Saturday, a teammate from the Fall season team had tripped on a curb and her glasses broke and cut her face. One of our teammates called 911 and the head coach and once she was in good hands.... i continued to run! From Amantha... she said that the ambulance and fire came out to check on her! It wasn't anything serious just for precaution. The lady is training for a marathon too... as a walker! She wanted to continue on her 2 miles but were advised not too! Although I mention what team season these people are, we are all ONE team and it showed yesterday, yet again! Their were about 20-30 TNT people from both teams helping this one lady who had fallen! True Team SPIRIT!!!!!!

As I mentioned above, Amantha needs to raise a minimum of $2,900 to run her first marathon in San Francisco! If you can help her out in anyway... no amount is too great or small and will make a world of difference. Her donation website is: http://pages.teamintraining.org/ocie/nikesf08/awriter. Thank you so much in advance!

GO TEAM!
