Well, TJ and I decided yesterday we want to set a goal for us to run the 5k. The c25k program is 10 weeks long so by the end of September we should be ready to go. We turned to October to give wiggle room and see what we could find. There is a 5k/10k LiveStrong race in Austin in the middle of October, so that's what we are shooting for! We wanted to not just do a 5k, but do one that raises money to make a difference. Last year my step-mother passed away from cancer and they were plugged into the LiveStrong program. Ever since she was diagnosed we have all tried to do our part and buy their clothes and wear the bracelets to remember the horrible disease called cancer. We have also lost my husbands grandfather and my grandfather that I never met to cancer. Keep a lookout for ways to support me for that race.
We are also going to be doing a walk to help raise money for Alzheimer research. You can find more information or donate here: http://2011walktoendalz.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=456146&lis=0&kntae456146=22CF1946518A4643929AF6E9C675448A&supId=329621708
Thanks for supporting causes that have touched me family.
