Take a good look at the faces of these people, these are my TEAM IN TRAINING teammates. Each one of them has taken on the extraordinary challenge of training to complete a half marathon or full marathon and raise money to support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

My teammates pictured above have just finished their first training run. They look good don't they?

I had the distinct honor of guarding their bags while they went running. Here's all their stuff:
It wasn't an easy job. First off it was a little cold just standing there. Second, see that water bottle on the corner of the table? It was a real hand full. Honestly, when I held it, it filled my hand.

I didn't want my teammates to have all the fun so, when practice was finished I ran home, dropped off my bag, then went back and took a little run around the park.
