Thank you to all that supported the Graham Team in Training.
We are back from the Nike Women's Marathon in San Francisco, a little sore and battered but feeling very accomplished!!
Everyone finished their event!!
Arlene the full marathon, 26.2 miles, bad knees and all!!
Andy, Ashley, Brian, Elaine, Jamie and Nina the half marathon, 13.1 miles.
The speaker at the inspirational dinner on Saturday was a gal, AnnaLynn, from our Western NY TNT chapter who is in remission from Leukemia.
She reminded us why we were doing what we were doing!
She and much of her family participated in the half marathon as well.
Sunday was VERY early (breakfast at 5am) and the course was definitely more difficult than any of us thought it would be.
We knew there would be hills, but never dreamed they would be SO LONG!!
They seemed to go on forever!! (Think of the hill by GCC that continues for over a mile!! And there were two of those types of climbs!)
Attached are a couple team photos we thought you might like to see.
The one is before the race and includes all members in the Western NY chapter and the TNT coach from Buffalo.
The other is at the victory dinner and includes our coach, the chapter coordinator and her brother (who ran the half also).
Thank you again to all that helped us get to the start line! We truly appreciate those that supported our effort!!
WE MADE IT!!!!!
We have reached our financial goal!
Thank you to EVERYONE that has donated to the Graham Team in Training.
It has taken several long months and LOTS of hard work to get to this point.
We wouldn't have made it without the support of MANY different people and organizations!
All that's left now.... RUN / WALK!
GO TEAM!!!
