Oh rats. I picked a really, really bad day to have left the camera at home. And my colleagues who took lots of photos at the rally yesterday apparently weren’t at the session this AM with Martina Navratilova. Bummer, because…
She rocks!!
Actually, it was very interesting. She prepared some remarks for the crowd on the subject at hand (related to her book on fitness and health which is fab) and those were a bit stilted. She was working off her notes, and while the info was good, the delivery was one of someone who wasn’t the top of her game the way she has been on the courts.
But fortunately, that was just a small part of the session. She was truly amazing when she was interacting with the facilitator or the audience. What a great sense of humor and wit she has!
I hope we do a lot more with her. What an inspiration!

Yeah, I heard great things about that session. I, on the other hand, elected to wonk out at the talk on “public policy building blocks.” Rother dry stuff compared to Martina.
