We kicked off our summer season this morning with our first group training session. We started off the morning with our apparel and footwear clinc hosted by Mike from the Big Peach Running Company. Everyone got great information on everything from shoe selection to body glide and nip guards! Thanks so much to Mike and the Big Peach!
We had prizes! Big Peach donated a gift card for one lucky winner and I had a prize (a Team Challenge backpack) for our awesome fundraiser, Pam, that raised over $2400 in a little over a week!
Everyone went out for the starting base run of two miles and everyone came back with a smile on thier face! We celebrated our first run with gatoraid in wine glasses (since we are doing Napa) and some snacks! Some of the more advanced runners went out for some more miles! A good time was had by all! I can't wait to join the team out there on the roads in the next few weeks!
If you want to be part of the fun it is not too late. Those of you that have not signed up yet, don't worry! We are having a "last chance" information meeting on March 10th !
You still have the opportunity to join the team! This is a great way to find out how you can help find a cure for Crohn's disesae and ulcerative colitis, run or walk a half marathon join us at one of our fantastic summer events, the Kona Half Marathon and the Napa to Sonoma Wine County Half Marathon.
