00:16This 25th anniversary is a remarkable achievement, one that follows a journey of trust by your shareholders and service to your members.

00:57We always want to do our best, right? But I'm also grateful that at this age and being a senior athlete that I'm still around, you know, looking at the promo video, I saw some of my competitors who no longer compete.
01:11And I'm grateful to God that I'm still involved in sports, in athletics, in road running. I'm grateful.
01:18Being the champion for the past two years is something very special and, you know, by the grace of God, I hope to do it again this year.
01:27Training has been going very, very good. You know, I just keep running PBs in races, you know, training really hard with my teammates and everything seems to be going smooth right now.
