Team in Training: Day 6 - Team Social

Two updates today:

1) My fundraising page is now live and I've already reached 10% of my goal! Will you please donate and help drive up that number? http://pages.teamintraining.org/sf/kauai09/dmaloney

2)Tonight was our first team social. As a result, I missed out on a planned 20 minute run; will have to make up for that tomorrow, which is supposed to be a day of rest. The social was held at Epi Center MedSpa in San Francisco. They really went all out, providing drinks, munchies catered by Palio and the location free of charge. Their office manager was a member of TNT in 2008 and felt this was a good way to give back. Great idea- and thank you!

I had a good time and got to know some more of our teammates. My favorite part, though, was this machine they had that uses a blacklight to show you all of the skin damage to your face from years of sun exposure. It was somewhat horrifying, as I grew up in Florida, so the verdict wasn't great. As a technie nerd though, I found it to also be pretty fascinating. I did it twice so I could spend some extra time studying the patterns. :)

Afterwards, we went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and I'm proud to report that I passed on dessert. So far, I've lost 1/2 pound per day since joining the team. I need to keep up that momentum!
