Team Send Off

We had our team send-off today at Coach Chuck's house, getting our purple race shirts, final instructions, and tickets. Plus we got a special "Virginia is for Cures" shirt - a take on the famous slogan "Virginia is for Lovers". The whole team will wear these blue shirts at the pasta party, now called the inspiration party. Can't wait! Just 3 days of work this week, then Nashville here we come!
We all put our race shirts on over our shirts and posed for a photo, including Coach Chuck (who will be the Virginia Team coach at the race) and Coach Vicki (who was the head coach this season but is not making the trip with us.
