Why did you start running? In high school I started cross country to get in shape for basketball season and was a pretty good runner, so I have been running since the 9th grade.
What do you hope to gain from this trip? I hope to gain a better appreciation of the Chinese culture, and their educational system. On personal note this will only be my second marathon and they are a test to your perseverance so I will gain a sense of pride from accomplishing goal and enduring all the training. I also want kids to see that if you set a goal no matter how lofty that you can achieve it especially if you use resources. A group or team can accomplish so much more than any individual and that is a good lesson to learn early.
