Team In Training

So, this isn't the greatest picture...but this is my life now, 5 days a week! I'm training for a full marathon! Holy cow...what did I sign up to do? What was I thinking with an almost 3 year old & 8 month old?!? :) Pushing 70+ pounds is hard work...but amazingly the training has gone well so far.

Why am I doing this? Well, first off it's the physical challenge of running 26.2 miles & getting back into shape after having Benjamin...& then most importantly it's in honor of my mom & other relatives who have been given the awful diagnosis of cancer. I miss you, mom! :)

I made it a goal to raise $2900 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society - the money raised goes to cancer research as well as help cancer patients quality of life while they go through treatment. It's a great cause...please help me reach my goal! You can head over to my personal fundraising website: http://pages.teamintraining.org/wa/rnr10/sbyeman OR send me a check made payable to LLS.

Thanks so much in advance for you generosity!!
