On my way to my new years resolution. |
| Ok so a few months ago I wrote about all of my goals for a few months and how my New Years Resolution was to complete a full marathon by the end of the year.?Well I am giving myself an 18 day extension.?Today I registered in the West Coast Roadrunners training program to train for the P.F. Chang's Arizona Rock'n'Roll marathon on January 18th, 2009 in Phoenix, AZ.?The program starts on July 5th and will run through until the marathon (27 weeks).?There are Saturday group runs, educational seminars, weekly schedules, track sessions with trainers, andddddd I get discounts and a free hat and t-shirt.?There is a staff of 36 coaches and they train at 5 locations in San Diego.? |

| ?So far in September we will only be doing the AIDS 10K (our first 10K!)on the 28th.?In October we are doing 3 walks, one on the 4th to support research for pancreatic cancer.?Lauren will be walking for her dad who died from pancreatic cancer.?The other one is on the 11th at the SD zoo called a Walk on the Wild Side.?The ADA's Step to Fight Diabetes is on the 25th and of course I will walk in that one for dad and all the other family members with diabetes.? |
| ?The ADA's Step to Fight Diabetes is on the 25th and of course I will walk in that one for dad and all the other family members with diabetes.?On November 2nd we will do a 5K for the Susan G. Komen Foundation.?I wish we could do the three day/60 mile walk but each participant has to earn at least $2200 just to do it and that is a lot of donation soliciting.?So far there are none in December and that leaves us with the marathon in January.?As time goes by there may be more we want to do but for now this is the list.?Ok bed time. |
