| "We have to wear what?" |
"Sure, why not? Sounds fun. Tell me about it." I replied.
"Well, we need to raise money to help kids go to summer camp," Jeff started.
After having one of the best summers in my life working for YMCA Camp Ocoee in Tennessee, I knew that giving kids a chance to spend a week in nature learning more about themselves and making friends is a great reason to run.
"The run is in December," Jeff continued.
"Yeah, ok. I've got plenty of cold weather running clothes." I replied.
"And...we have to run in a speedo."
Wait, what? I don't even wear a speedo in August...in Atlanta. When the evening low is 98 degrees.
"Well, if it gives kids a chance to go to camp, I'm in." I replied.
Thus started the 6 weeks of speedo training and fundraising.
Ten months later, it's Santa Speedo Run prep. time again!
