Goal Set... Goal Met!
A huge congratulations to our amazing member Aileen Flanagan who completed her goal of running a half-marathon on all seven continents! This picture was taken on King George Island, Antartica, where she fulfilled her goal (and brought along her TCC bag)!

Throughout the 22 kilometers course, marchers had the option of wearing a 22 lb.

Spicy Cantina hosted a party afterwards.
