Saw train about to pull away at 8:37...oh oh goodbye...
Next train coming at 8:47....oh oh 15 min trip...oh oh will be late.
I email Esther for possible help. I am worried because I am number 76 and must take train then short bus one stop to Stade.
Train is in fact 3 min late....oh oh I text fan buddy Ludo..suggest he tell funny stories to queue boss..hope to delay so I make it...
Train arrives centrum...I have pumped up, had water, strap tight my pack, turned cap backwards, tighten shoes.....= Ready to Run
Doors open..bang I am out doors run 3 blocks to buss top. ..oh oh. .. I text Ludo say I will be 10 min late...hope Waiting on a Miracle ...
See motorcycle guy, but he says no no I need a helmet to hitch ride....
Look at bus schedule....oh oh 7 minutes....so flag down woman car, roll window down...she say no sorry she hurry to work.
I remember to Breathe and Run.
Text fan friend Anne to give my tickets to fans if I have heart attack....=texting on FAST RUN...
I skip bus and head I think pretty sure towards Stade.== BORN TO RUN FAST... I am total sweat just like Bruce on second song....
Get some text from Ludo but everything is blurry...tasting blood in throat....
SEE Stade next block, hear crowd I line. ...Ludo text says ok but I do not see
I round corner, see crowd..===BORN TO RUN SUPER FAST...WILL BREATHE LATER...
I yell with my last breath B R O G A N from S E A T T L E !
Ludo says slow down....someone has Pushed the clouds away and given me a Sunny Day. My number is saved
