I had a plan to throw you a surprise birthday party. But then you said you got sick and wouldn’t be running with us on Sunday. We were like, OMG, what if Thomas doesn’t show up? Our plan would be ruined!

I still believed that when you said you’d come, you would. But what if you were too tired and couldn’t wake up? I didn’t want to end up in a passive situation again.

After brainstorming, we came up with Plan A and Plan B.

Plan A: If you waited for us at the finish line, we would stick to the original plan.

Plan B: If you couldn’t make it, I would find you. That’s why I asked for your phone number. :))

I'm really happy because the plan turned out really well.

Stepping back to encourage others to push over their limits and celebrating for their wins are your biggest win this time. Thank you for mentioning us in your blog (it's my pleasure 🥹) and giving meaningful values to our communities (WOTN, MỞ Running Club - I'd just brainstormed this name 5s ago 😂). Get well soon, enjoy your birthday and come back to run with us 😊
