Barbados Fun Run

Hi, this is Julie, Lauren, Natalie, Michelle, Emily, and Missile, and we just finished the Barbados Fun Run, which started at 10PM tonight. We all started at the beginning of the starting line ready to dominate this race. We quickly became intimidated after making two friends who's goals were to run a 5:00 mile. Michelle then announced to everyone behind us to please not trample us. 30 seconds later, the race began. We were very nervous because it was very crowded, dark, we did not know where we were going, and there was a lot of pushing going on. After all of this, each of us finished the race and all received medals for finishing in the top section. Coach was very proud of us for working as a team and giving it our all, even though we are not land sport people. Because it was extremely hot and humid during our run, we went straight to the beach and jumped in the ocean as a natural swimmer would do. It was a very exciting experience to run the streets of Barbados with hundreds of people from all over the world, with the support of our team!
