I really think I am going to do this. Two things:
1. Good cause
2. Commitment to someone other than myself.

Essentially this will hold me accountable and keep me honest. I like that. I also like that I'll be essentially running for someone else besides just me. You get coaching and they pay for your transportation and lodging. Pretty good deal if you ask me. I will just have to make arrangements for my kids for two days. Can you say MOM and DAD? All in all, I'm pretty excited ab...

I am really missing my husband right now. I hate when the ship goes underway. I like that the girls and I get into a pretty set routine, but I'll take the chaos of having my husband home. He is supposed to run a 5K with me on Thanksgiving day. I can't believe he is actually going to do it! I will be so cool to have him there with me.
