4.5 Miles!

Part of training for the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation (PCRF) walk/run means getting up at 7am on Saturdays, meeting up with a bunch of other people doing the same thing, and running the miles needed to keep on track. Today the mileage for the 10k group was 4.5 miles.

It's (really) hard waking up early on Saturdays, but when you get there and see all the other people with smiles on their faces trying to help kids with cancer, it makes it all worth it. There were about 25 of us there today. Some are training for the half marathon, some for the 10k (ME), and some for the 5k. It's really inspiring.

We also had a guest speaker come. Her name was Callie and is 4 years old. When she was a baby, she was told she had brain cancer. She has beat it though!! Thanks to the doctors and hospitals and people like you that contribute to an PHENOMENAL cause. Now she is just a normal 4 year old with TONS of energy. She was running circles around me.

My goal for this year is $1,250. I have raised $160. I need your help!!! If you donate, you will get a personal thank you card from me that was created by one of the kids....PLUS it's tax deductible :)
