Training

Our first saturday run as a team is on Feb 5th. Looking forward to meeting the new members and catching up with my teammates from last year. I've been doing alot of bookcamp style classes and other different varieties of workouts to hopefully be stronger this year. I would like to do the 1/2 in better time than I did last year. I feel stronger. I think next week I will try to get some runs in. It's been kind of cold and I won't run in my neighborhood in the dark!

I need to get my donation website up. I'll have to check with someone to help me do that. I need to get started. I have to raise more this year, but I think if I put my mind to it, I will be able to do it!

Rally On!

Here we go again

So, I did it again. I just signed up to do the Seattle Rock n Roll 1/2 marathon with my Rally team. I was really on the fence this year. The money we have to raise has been increased; my body is a year older; I haven't been running much; the list could go on forever.

But a few weeks ago one of our little Rally kids relapsed. I got to know her mom and dad from last years Rally NW team and Rally Girls team. She's such a happy little girl, she and her twin brother turned 4 this year. When I read the journal entries her parents make, it just breaks my heart.

So, I'm doing the only thing I know how to do. I'm going to train and run and raise some money for childhood cancer research. And along the way, hopefully, bring more awareness of this awful thing that is killing our precious little ones.

That's all I can do..........
