Race for the Cure - UPDATE!
Hi Everyone!
Well....Jen has graciously volunteered to handle the walkers in the group (THANKS JEN!) and I will be with the runners (and beginner runners).
I see that a few people are interested - THANKS!
So, let's establish a workout date. Some have said that Wednesday is good for them. So it looks like it will be on Wednesday. HOWEVER....I cannot start Wed until the week after next. Some of us have support group meeting on Wednesday the 12th (totally missed that on the calendar). So, for this week and next week only - is Thursday or Friday doable?
Let me know, so I can plan it.
Just to recap in case you missed the post - Susan G. Koeman Race for the Cure is coming up. It's not an actual race, but rather a celebration of life and a way to raise money to beat this deadly disease. Many of us know someone who has had to deal with this in their life, and trust me (if you haven't) it is EXTREMELY unpleasant to deal with.
So.....I've decided to put together a "team" of friends and family so we can rally against this together. You can either walk it or run it - your choice. Registration is $25.00 per person, unless you elect to register a a VIP or In the Piink. Then it is higher.
Jen is going to Captain the walkers to make sure that everyone knows where to meet, and will be walking with them. I will be with the runners.
We will be "training" at Mt. Trashmore one day a week - looks like Wednesdays at about 630ish. This way, if you have yonger kids, they can play at the park while you get your exercise in. This is a GREAT way to get motivated, and to motivate others. We are ALL in this TOGETHER!
If you want to run, I can certainly show you how I started out. But...not everyone "training" is running. So, please....come out and enjoy yourself. I only ask that you let me know so we can keep an eye out for you.
