First run with Team Challenge

This morning (8am) was my first run with Team Challenge. We met at the Greenway off of Johnston Road. We did an ice breaker with paper airplanes and some warm ups. I started running with  one girl who has colitis and she really inspired me. She wasn't feeling well this morning and STILL came to run; she is so strong. We ran 3.5 miles today in about 40 minutes. I was so happy and felt amazing. I can't wait to run more with the group. It makes it so much easier to run with a buddy. The time just seems to go faster.

The leaders came out early this morning and set up mile markers and water stations. They had a place for every persons keys and jackets. It is really well thought out and planned. The coaches seem to really care and want to help. Everybody was so encouraging and kept the group motivated. It was a nice feeling to be a part of.

It was also a theme day, orange and blue(Team Challenge colors.) Yes, I knit the headband :)
