Chris and I have set a goal to complete a marathon in the Spring on April 5. We are so excited about this challenge and can't wait to see the finish line. We started training about 3 weeks ago, (while moving into a new house and preparing for 2 Thanksgiving Feasts) and the farthest we have run in one day is 4 miles! That is more than we have ever done in our entire lives! Looks like we have a long road ahead, (literally), HEE HEE!! I am creating this blog so that I can share with you our ups and downs, and all the in between.
The event we are running in is called the Big D Marathon. It is located in Dallas. Hence the word, BIG D! For those of you who don't know what a marathon is, it is running 26.3 miles.
This goal is not about Chris and I, it is about all of the people and families of people diagnosed with Leukemia. We are raising money for the cure. The only way for the cure to be found is if it is funded and it takes alot of money. Please consider supporting us and make a donation. Any amount will be greatly appreciated.
Check back to from time to time to see our progress. Our goal is to run 6 miles this Saturday!!!! Pray for me!!
