Collecting Moments 4

Yesterday, coaches and running buddies...all teachers at my school...united to support our students as some of them took on the challenge of running their first 5K! As I continue to collect the special moments in my life, I cannot help but feel joy and gratitude to be part of such a committed bunch of educators. There were lots of laughs, hugs, and much support going around for our girls. Our students had fun, and each and every one of them met their challenge of completing the 3.1 miles.

This morning our season of Heart and Sole culminated with a 5k around Turner Field in Atlanta. It was cold. It was early. But we're girls...we can handle anything especially while wearing our crazy and colorful socks!
