Trunk Monkey Ragnar Tennessee - Meet my team.

As expected, I was able to share some great memories with some truly inspirational and supportive individuals this past weekend for the Tennessee Ragnar Relay.

The company I work for, Healthways, sponsors the Tennessee Ragnar, and since pretty much everyone I work with believes in promoting health and well-being, there is a high desire for a lot of people to participate.

The majority of my team ran together last year, and they just had a few spots to fill, me being one of them. Once I finally agreed to participate, I asked Jill H if she wanted to fill the last spot- the rest is history. Our team was unique for me in the sense that there was no pressure on time or competition. Several of my teammates are BRAND new runners, recovering from injuries, or are runner/walkers. Needless to say everything was just focused on having a good time.

I'm still gathering my thoughts from a fun-filled, but QUITE EXHAUSTING weekend. In the mean time I would like to introduce you to meet my team:

Van 1:
LtoR - Jeremy, Chris, Garrett, Cheryl, Chris, Jason

Van 2:
