Earth Day Run

In honour of Earth Day, Angelo and I ran outside. It was the first time I ran outside and it was the first time I ran with Angelo. Though it was a little crisp when we walked out, it soon warmed up (or rather we warmed up). It was tough running with someone else, especially that the treadmill wasn't setting the pace, we were. I struggled with this until about the 3rd time when I decided to go at my own pace. He would either run ahead of me to keep going slower. We stayed at the same pace the entire time and at the end, he admitted that the last two times were a little more challenging. Funny that he finds the last two to be the hardest too.
While running, we saw an eagle in the trees about 15 feet above us. It was amazing! Two seagulls started to attack him and he flew ahead of us. They're so massive! All I could think was 'wow! he better not shit on me! Is my mouth closed?' Of course, I was gawking with my mouth closed... I've seen some youtube videos of people being pooped in the mouth by birds... I can't say that it's something I would like to experience in this life time.
Good news! Our team now has THREE team members! The newest addition is Jennifer Garcia. You can help her with her fundraising here! Slowly the team is growing :) It's pretty exciting! So far, we're three registered massage therapists... kinda cool eh :)
