This past Saturday, January 21st, amidst blizzard conditions, a snow covered central park and freezing temperatures, my TNT participants crossed the finish line with smiles on their faces! The Manhattan Half Marathon was my first official event with Team in Training, and I must say, it was a memorable one. My team raised over $84,000 all going towards cancer research! At 7am, I met my team at bag check to get them all pumped and ready to go and headed over towards a cheer station to cheer them on as they ran around Central Park! I had ordered them medals for when they finished, so I met them all at the finish line and congratulated them! I am so proud of all that they have done- they not only completed the half marathon in the snow, but they raised money to go towards cancer research to save lives. It was truly an inspiring day and regardless of the cold, wet, snowy weather, I absolutely love my job.
