The team organized by friends talking to friends, veteran team members included Patrick, Mark Edgar Armi and Omar. I feel good when more people come out to endure the team spirit and the fact of running on southern part of Guam. At the last minute to circumstances that I don’t know and don’t really care to find out our main transportation got cancelled, so omar and armi volunteered their vehicles, it kind of worked out in a sense as each car could leap frog to the next leg so the runner can warm up for their leg. I do thank Omar and Armi for allowing sweaty runners in their vehicles

I always enjoy a good run but when your with a team encouraging one another to do the best for each other to run more even though being tired or the heat it is an accomplishment.
We started our morning 230 to meet at Townhouse (aka agana shopping center LoL) I woke up around 130 to prep water extra socks wash water etc. I had enough time to stop by the gas station on the way to agana to fill up. Amazingly I was mentally ready for this event compared to the past two years hahahaha.
I am really happy for all the runners in our team and the others, the event is a race but also at the same time a challenge to accomplish as a team. The meaning to start as a team and finish as a team has a certain goal within everyone. Yes it is my opinion but if you look at it many things in our daily lives we can accomplish certain things as one but when a group of people are brought in given a plan broken up to accomplish their parts and those parts brought in is liking making a plane making a whole picture
Well till the next run on Guam or Philippines
