"For it is in giving that we receive" ~ St. Francis of Assisi~

February 20, 2010 (week 2)
The team gathered once again at Kennedy Park at 6:45 A.M for our second day of team training. It was not as cold as last week and that was a huge plus for me. We started off with warm ups and running/walking techniques. Next, we broke off into our groups for 45 minutes of walking/running. I walked at a brisk pace for the time we were out there-it was truly a beautiful morning for walking.
The Disney Princess Marathon Team welcomed us back in with cheers and hoots; Mica even rang his school bell for us!

Coach Scott shared with us a beautiful e-mail from someone who lost his 34 year old friend and brother-in-law to blood cancer. The story he shared reminded me again that I am blessed to be given the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those who are afflicted with blood cancers…please join me in raising awareness and money to fund research that will one day wipe out these diseases. Won’t you please?

My sincere thanks to all those who have already donated to toward my goal.
