*OUCH* I didn't almost, I did leave her behind.

Last year at Phoenix a best student told me she was running back in the motel and would be right back. I forgot, we all climbed into the cars and went to competition without her. She was pissed and upset. I didn't blame her at all. I felt terrible. She walked to the competition - 4 miles. No one had realized she was gone. Thank goodness she was a senior, self-confident girl rather than a freshman. Her dad was with us. I apologized and it took her awhile to be ok with me. I failed miserably that time. I'd be upset if people left me behind.
