Season Two a Success

Posted by The Running Guru on June 7, 2010 at 9:09 AM

Run the Streets finished up Season Two with 23 youth and 20 mentors finishing the Jenks Aquarium Half-Marathon on May 15, 2010.  We started the 18 week season on January 9, 2010, with 51 youth registered to participate.  Over the course of the 18 week season, RTS youth logged over 250 miles of running and participated in four races.  RTS hosted a Finish Line Party at the Westside Community Center on May 17, 2010.  All RTS youth received hoodies and trophies as well as burgers and hotdogs provided by Arvest Bank.  A drawing was also held with eight youth winning prizes ranging from Wal-Mart gift cards to an iPod Touch

Sorry I missed Season I . Season II was awesome though!!!!!!

I met and ran with some great kids and fellow mentors, lost a little weight, and ran (and finished) my first 10K and Half-Marathon. Not bad for my personal inaugural season. More importantly, it was incredible to share the experience with kids (some who are barely even teenagers) taking on the same physical challenges as me, training hard, and fighting through to the finish. What an accomplishment. I'm proud of all of the RTS kids and I can't wait until Season III starts.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!!
