O.K. Everyone call me CRAZY!!. I'm going public. I have decided to give my second marathon a go. I really enjoyed my 5K with my 13 year old daughter. I was very slow, but I did finish. She finished in 30 minutes.

Now I am going to try the a true half marathon walk/jog. Tonight is our first meeting for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Team in Traning Event. They will start working with us to get us in shape for several events around the country. I am going to try a 13K in Cleveland in May of 2008. The whole ideas is raise money for the Lukemia & Lymphoma Society and to get in great shape at the same time. They provide team trainers and the events etc. We provide the fundraising and the desire to get in shape. I felt like this was one way to force myself to get out there and move and to do it for more than just myself. I can't believe that I have waited 45 years to begin to do this.

Keep your fingers crossed. I'm going to need your good thoughts

Hi! How is your training going? You are inspiring! I'm training for a 5K in May 2008. And, yes, I'm very slow. My worry is that I'll be the very last person to cross the line. I've read that running a 10 minute mile is a worthy goal before you attempt a 5K and I'm slugging away at a 12:20 mile! 13K... amazing! You go, girl:)
