For some reason, today I accepted an invite to speak to my doctor's support group about my journey so far, in particular, my move towards training for endurance events, as in the full marathon in the fall.    I was thinking of using the team as part of the story and speech.

Congrats on being asked.  That's wonderful!

Please do let them know about the team!  It's obviously not for everyone, but it's just another thing none of us ever thought we'd do!!

Andrew that's awesome!  I talked about the team at my last seminar, and I have another one tomorrow, so I'll be talking it up again then.  And I talk about it at support group.  No takers of course because they are all essentially wanting the tools in their insides to do the work (sorry there I go climbing on that soapbox)...........but I keep trying!  Someone someday will be changed I hope and actually get out there and do a 5k and maybe get the bug.......
