Summer FUN! Happy Fourth of July!!!

Hi Team,

Can you believe tomorrow is the 4th of July?  Today it actually felt like November!  Needless to say its been seven months since we first met that dark and cool night in January.  I want to thank EVERY single one of you for trusting this enthusiastic, on the verge of crazy coach of yours to lead you to run, walk, or jog a half marathon or 10K. Every single one of you dazzled me with your dedication to the fundraising goals too!  And together we built the first room of the new all girls BEADS high school! AMAZING!!!

This week Rod and I picked up the donation check from California Pizza Kitchen.  Our social gathering raised another $200.73 for BEADS! Way to go team! CPK said they love the mission of BEADS and asked us to come for another FUNdraiser anytime!

Summer is a busy and fun time for all of us!  So busy that we had a "secret" practice, meaning no one could make it last Thursday. So I want to change it up and let summer be summer, and have us gather for friendship and fun!  Here's what I'm thinking, the third Thursday of every month this summer, Run 26 offers the Mill Creek Adventure run.  Let's plan to meet and participate!  Its fun, great exercise, prizes, and even a beer garden at the finish!  And on Thursday August 23rd, please come for a night of lake life with a BBQ, swimming, boating, and great fun with a team reunited!

Here's a recap of dates for summer . . .
