Team CrossFit Scottsdale at Pat's Run 2009

Team CrossFit Scottsdale at Pat's Run 2009

Saturday was a beautiful day for many reasons. It was the day of Pat’s Run, the 4.2 mile race that benefits the Pat Tillman Foundation that is dedicated to supporting future leaders in citizen service. It was also a day for many of us to run in our first ever road race as well as for others to make record times. I have to thank to CrossFit Scottsdale for putting a great team together for a great cause! I was priviledged to be a part of this team and see fellow clients of mine and students of CrossFit Scottsdale push themselves beyond what they thought they could do. Twenty of us ran along side over 13,000 others to support the cause. It was an emotional experience all together. We finished the race on the 42 yard line of Sun Devil Stadium, which had to be one of the most amazing experiences of my life!   For  those of you that don’t know me, I do not claim to be a runner in the least. My goal was to run the entire time, no walking allowed!  I did and as Angie (a fellow CrossFit Scottsdale student) and I came out of the tunnel into the stadium we found  another gear, turned it up and crossed the finish line feeling like we  could  run for 10 more miles!    Congratulations to Coach Luke, Coach Erica, Chris, Myrna, Liz, Tracey, Angie, Nicole, Jeff, Krystyna, Kristen, Jen, Najla, Inez, Brian, Kristy, Sonja, Steve, and Bryan!  You all are AMAZING and I know that I will see you at the next race!
