On Thanksgiving, we give thanks for our friends, our family, and life in general. This Thanksgiving I had the absolute pleasure of spending time with my dear friend Melanie Spring.
Melanie encourages me in my business and personal endeavors, and she has been a key factor in encouraging me with my running. She ran with me during my first race 1.5 years ago (actually I “ran”, she basically walked). This Thanksgiving, I went with her to “crew” and cheer her at the Turkey Chase in Bethesda. She had an awesome race and we had a great time catching up as we walked to and from the race site (actually I kinda jogged and she walked — did I mention she’s a really fast walker too??)
We’ve been thru a lot of fun times over the years and I know there are lots more fun times to come. She has been an incredible person in my life and I’m so thankful for her!
