SF TNT Crew!


13 miles - I had such a wonderful time with the local Team In Training crew in San Francisco today!!! I worked with 2 people to make it happen. Gayle (a mentor) helped set up Patti (her mentee) to pick me up on a street corner and take me over the "big red bridge" to the team run in Marin County. Patti was great, a local architect from Brazil that has been in San Francisco area for 5 years. Gayle was great, the one that set it up for me and made sure I got to the run and was supported with info. I also met Jeanine, a local lawyer that is running in honor of her dad that is fighting Lymphoma right now and a couple of young girls that I finished the run with that really made me push the last 4 miles. They are all going to be in SF so hopefully we will cross paths again. It was a great run!! I was on a total high and I am SO happy to have met this crew. I felt amazing during this run and just downright happy. What a treat. It definitely made missing the drinking fest/party last night at our team house more worthwhile. Cause hey, nobody wants to be a party pooper.
I then went with my company team members to the Muir Redwood Forest. Way cool and we did some hiking. My body is a machine today apparently. I think maybe this hike made up for the extra 5 miles that I didn't do with my Iowa TNT team today as they were going to hit 18 miles. However, my coach may not agree with me. :-)
