My cousin Debby used to live in Texas. One of her friends has been involved with Team in Training for a while now. Her husband was diagnosed with a blood cancer a few years ago. Dana Susan was with the Gulf Coast Texas team in San Diego, and in a room full of thousands of TNT members, I FOUND HER!!!! I went up to a table and said "Are you all from Texas?" (Wish I could pull off a y'all, but not so much...) They said yes, and, surprised, I said I was looking for Dana-Susan. And she smiles and says "Oh! That's me!"
Below is the email she sent to Debby, as well as a picture from the pasta party. More pictures soon, and a race recap, I promise!

Hey Deb, I met your cousin in San Diego. There were 3900 TNT participants and loads of coaches, mentors, etc. So it was a great weekend with 12.5 million raised for blood cancer. I'm glad your cousins did this race and I hope they had a blast and will do it again some day.
When you speak to Sara, please congratulate her from a Texas Gulf Coast TNT Coach. And please thank her for doing this for this great cause. My husband surely benefits from this research and our whole family benefits from the patient & family services. Also tell her that I rang my cowbell for so long at the pasta party that I have three huge blisters on my fingers! But of course she and all the other participants were worth it.
