Ashley's Story
Saturday, August 14th 2010
Every Saturday I'm running with Team in Training as I prepare for the half marathon November 28th, 2010. While I am running to raise money, I'll also be dedicating my Saturday runs to someone affected by Leukemia / Lymphoma.Ive never met Ashley face to face but we share two things in common: Were fighting to regain control of our lives by making healthier choices and weve both lost our moms. I chose Ashley to be my first story and to be the first dedicated run because she has so muc...

I wanted to do anything I could to make her happy. I trul...
Barefoot Running / Open Swim Clinic
Sunday, August 8th 2010
Can I just sit with those two things for a minute here.I am about to do a post about A) Barefoot running and B) Open Water Swimming and I am almost in tears (probably not surprised) over how awesome it is to be writing about something so physically challenging. If I can just go back down to memory lane a bit.
That's a picture of me 6 months ago when I had just ran for 5 minutes for the first time ever in my adult life. It was the second week of the c25k program and I was ecstat...
