Blogging From The Elite Athlete Village
Tuesday, April 22 - Farewell
I ate breakfast this morning with Robert Cheruiyot—he told me he was feeling fine and preparing to leave for home. I'm sad to see the athletes go their separate ways this week; I feel I've just gotten to know them all well, and now that the race is over, they seem even more like good friends, not just talented celebrities!
The John Hancock Elite Athlete Village has brought everyone together in a welcoming atmosphere with good food and excellent company; I think the most valuable part of my experience has been actually staying in the Village and living with the athletes. Casually greeting and chatting with athletes in the hallways as I walk to breakfast or to a shift in the boiler room has made the Village a comforting place to call a second home for these past two weeks.
