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!
Going To Try 16!!!!! Aug 27th - Sept 4th
Our vacation up north was fun, but it rained 5 out of the 7 days!!! We did get in some good running miles though. In 4 days I logged in 20miles, but fell apart when we got home. This past week has been a disaster. I missed my 12 mile run on Saturday (Kelly was able to do hers) and with school starting back up I missed almost a whole week of training. I'm heading out tonight to get in 6 to 7 miles. I know I'm conditioned at this point to pick it back up, but I still feel like crap for not keeping up with the schedule. I can't change the past so why dwell there. Starting fresh today knowing that this Saturday we need to run 16 miles. Kelly is doing great!!! She made a great come-back from her injury and is certainly going to take part in the full marathon. As always I'm very proud of her strength, effort and determination to finish what she started!
