WELCOME!!!

WELCOME!!!
On May 14th, 2007 we joined Team in Training and became part of our first ever marathon adventure. A marathon dedicated to finding a cure for cancer. Signing up for a 26mile race was a very scary experience to say the least!!! To be honest, we can both find ourselves out of breath running up the basement stairs, LOL!!! When we found out about TNT we felt it was a great way to get in shape while supporting a well deserved cause. The following blogs are journal entries of what the process was really like for us. From first day training, till race day, we'll be keeping a log of our efforts, set-backs and triumphs. We'll also keep you posted on our fundraising achievements. Check back from time to time to see how we're doing. We'll need encouragement and support during this process, but not as much as those battling cancer!

Coney Island and an 8 Mile Run! 09-11-07


The marathon is just around the corner. At this point, it's hard to skip days and tell myself there's always tomorrow (and I've done that quite a bit)! This week we were scheduled to run 16 Sat, 4 Sun, Break Mon, 8 Tues, 5 Wed, 6 Thurs and off Fri. I was really dreading today's run, and when my family decided to meet up at Coney Island it was the perfect escape! OK, I started to feel guilty and decided I try a few miles when I got home. I ended up completing 8.2 miles in 1hr / 20min (9.7 min pace). Not my best time, but hey "I was burping chili fries!!!"
