After spending an emotional day Monday reliving our adventure and trying to put the experience into words, I realized yesterday that I neglected to talk much about one of our key players, "The Closer", aka, Karie. She ran in the #12 spot and she was amazing! She quietly sat in the back of the van waiting for her turn to run, she cheered us on, laughed with us and cried with us. Before the race, none of us knew her and if you are thrown into a room (or a large van) with 3 sisters and a niece, you may feel a bit overwhelmed. Karie fit right in with us and just got down to business every single time she ran. She had some incredible distances to cover and she did it with a smile. Thanks Karie for being in our van and being a part of our team! We were blessed to have had you with us!
