- Run 2 more laps around the island
We completed 20 laps around the island for a total 2 miles of running and that is the distance that Firefighter Stephen Siller ran to get to Ground Zero.Stephen was getting off work that day and heard about the first plane that hit the Trade Tower.He headed back to the station, grabbed his gear and headed out to Manhattan.The problem was that the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel was already closed, but that didn’t stop him from throwing on his 60LBS of gear and racing through the tunnel for a 2 mile run to ground zero where he gave up his life while saving others.
Mary:
Everyone called an exercise and we called it….Recover, Recover.
Moleskin:
Thanks to everyone for showing up this morning and helping me to honor those that risked their life so that others could live. It's hard to believe that this happened 19 years ago…….we will never forget that day. Bouncey or Rambo/Wambo has the Q next Friday and it should be a good one. Until we meet again. -E
