I was very doubtful I would ever sign up to run a marathon. But, one morning in the Fall of '06, I decided to accompany my colleagues to a Team in Training (TNT) informational meeting anyway. I listened as volunteers spoke about TNT, describing it as a “life-changing experience,” so enthusiastic I couldn’t help wondering if they were on drugs. Little did I realize that they were indeed on drugs, of the "running" kind—endorphins produced in the brain that result in what’s commonly called a “runner’s high.” After two seasons with the Team, I can say that I’m absolutely addicted. At the kick-off this past Saturday I had absolutely no doubt as I signed up for my third event—and first triathlon!—the Big Kahuna Half-Ironman. I can’t wait to start training.
