Wednesday Track Night - Now Tuesday Core Night

Due to Thanksgiving, we are meeting tonight, Tuesday, for a core workout at Sports Basement. I have a feeling I'm going to wish we were running instead.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving I'd like to thank everyone who continues to give me the encouragement I need to continue with this training. I still can't believe that I am winded after a lap and I'm supposed to reach 13 miles in less than 3 months! Big thank you's also go out to those of you who have already donated to my $2,000 fundraising, ALMOST half way there!!

To remind everyone what I am training for and where their donations are going, this week we were sent a story from veteran marathoner and one of our mentors, Andrea Beresford. We wish her mom well!

My mom just finished her 2nd course of chemo for CLL. Her first one was two years ago, and her spleen was down to her pubic bone, so it was time for more chemo. She's 83 years young, and did very well. All her hair fell out, and her new gray wig looks better then her own hair. Her eyelashes fell out and she learned how to apply fake ones. Her blood counts are CLL "normal", whatever that is, and she's vacationing in Florida for the winter. GO MOM!
