OBJECTIVE

ACHIEVED
12.31 mi.@ 8:27

6:02 AM 79° 78% 0 mph

On my mind during today's run ....

Our world isn't quite the same as it was yesterday. A bright light has gone out. A dear family friend, Travis Poll, has left this mortal existence. Throughout life he received accolades for his athletic pursuits and, later, his coaching. But more than this, he was a living example of a wonderful, caring person ... father, husband, brother and son.

God speed, my friend. Your time with us was short but you've proven all you can here in the minor leagues of life. Your call up to the Majors is well deserved. We will miss you as we carry on here without you. By the way, since you're there first, you're designated manager of our heavenly softball team. Be sure everything is ready when the rest of us join you!

Our love goes out to Travis' wife, young children, brothers, sister and dad.
