Day 15: 40 mins - 4.85 miles (Saturday, February 13)
Our third team practice was a 40min run. We ran on a trail next to the busiest highway that runs through Tacoma. It makes me appreciate all the beautiful miles of trails in Bozeman, MT where it was just me with mother nature and my iPod wasn’t fighting the sound of traffic to be heard. My ipod is usually blaring "I can only Imagine" by Mercy Me, which is my favorite running song. Nonetheless, it still feels great to get out run especially when you have good company. I am starting meet more and more of my teammates....all of them are amazing people! I am also feeling more confident with my runs, I am ready to start rampin' up on the miles a bit more, so the 50 min run next Saturday will be perfect. After practice, we had a fundraising clinic and a really great “mission moment”. One of the mentors first read a poem written by a leukemia survivor. It set the stage for my emotions. She then read a letter from our honored teammate’s mother. My emotions took over. Before I knew it I had tears rolling down my cheeks! It makes me wonder, should I be brining my running shoes and a box of tissues to practice??
