At yesterday's workout (a spin class) we were visited by our Honored Teammate. This is the cancer survivor who we are training in honor of, for those of us who may not have a personal connection/story. Very nice woman. And very coincidental. She's essential from here in Baltimore. However, her parents live in Cary! And since she was diagnosed, she's been living with them in Cary in order to receive treatment at UNC. So for those back home who wonder where the money actually goes, you don't have to look very far. By donating, you support treatment centers like UNC that help people who could even be your neighbor!
Just finished watching "Chariots of Fire." Basically a running movie that tells the story of Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell, a Jewish man studying at Cambridge, and a Scottish missionary, who compete against each other, but are teammates for Great Britain at the 1924 Olympics in Paris. Has a very cheesy intro. If you ever watch contemporary comedies with that take a jab at dramatic running, it came from this... You should probably YouTube it to know what I mean.
Happy Birthday to my mom.
