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!

Circus Act!!! 09-13-07


Had the day off today (Happy Rosh Hashana)!!! Kelly and I decided to go up to Dodge Park and run together since the kids were at school. Dodge, unlike Stoney Creek which is wide open, has narrow paths tucked away in the woods. I get a little nervous over Kelly running there alone. Today was a circus act!!! We saw questionable people emerging from the woods where there were clearly no paths, older couples walking in snow-suits, dog walkers wearing netted bee masks and experienced first hand sound effects from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre... (a grinding chainsaw rumbling somewhere behind us in the woods). YES THIS IS ALL TRUE!!!! It did make us run faster!!! We were scheduled for 6 miles and ran 7.2. Not sure about the time, we were happy just to make it out alive!!!
