The past couple weeks have been full of team bonding:) The Sunday before Marathon Monday, most of us went into Boston to volunteer at the Pasta Party dinner for the marathon athletes. That is an experience I think anyone in the Boston area should have at least once. Its so fun that I’m planning to volunteer every year I’m at Wellesley!
Here’s some good pics of the team in Boston before the dinner started:
The marathon was a bigger and better than ever this year. There was a camera crew at Wellesley to film all the festivities. They are making the first ever documentary about the Marathon. A few of us were filmed! #MovieStarStatus
A bunch of the team got together to watch (and scream for) the runners in the morning. Then we walked into the Wellesley vil to see the half way point of the marathon.
All the discarded cups from runners gone by.
Boston Marathon half way point! Less than ten minutes from where I live on campus!!
Spending all this time with the team has made us even closer:) Team spirit has been especially awesome as we gear up for our end of the season championship meet! Currently we have a group email going around that everyone has been adding inspiration videos/drawings to to share with the team. My personal favorite, courtesy of teammate Alice Zhou:
