Team World Vision

Team in Training

The  Marathon Expo at the Miami Beach Convention Center was huge and had everything under the sun.

  The ING folks put on a marvelous race.  As expected, the course was spectacular (The courseway with the sun rising) and it was extremely well organized.  Best of all, the weather was splendidly delightful. 

The incredible team from Team in Training:  Heather, Samantha, Abby, Sarah, Manny and Ryan running and raising money for a 6-month old girl who was diagnosed with leukemia.

The five are running for the girl, but she alone is providing deep inspiration for the whole team.

Shansy from Team Lifeline. Team Lifeline was the most represented charity in Miami representing all 50 states plus Washington DC.
