Week #1Plus Some - Kickoff and Training

It started with Kickoff on Thursday of last week. Several hundred TNTers converging on the Hilton Bayfront Hotel. I had the honor of emceeing the evening, and after a couple minutes of nerves from looking onto the large crowd, things went well. It was an exciting night, and it was great to see all the new athletes joining the team. Next came last Saturday's session. Me met at Paradise Point. It was our first training run, and a time to get to know everyone.  Then, on Wednesday, I joined about 20 TNTers at Balboa Park for a nighttime run (complete with freezing cold wind). Nobody complained. We just did it. Next stop, tomorrow's training session at Roadrunner Sports. We'll be running, then having a "show clinic" so everyone can get the perfect running shoes.

Then, starting this Monday night, I'll help lead a group of runners in Santee (my neighborhood). I'm excited about this one, because it's one of the few East County weekday runs we've offered in a long time. Come join us. We'll be meeting @6pm at the entrance of Santee Lakes, off Fanita Parkway.
