Today was our first mid week practice at Brackenridge and it went well. Of course as I was walking the first mile. I was wondering "Why wasn't I more athletic in high school?","Please, Lord don't let my legs cramp up!" and "Can I really do this?" I came to the conclusion that "Hell Yeah I Can!"
After we completed 1.5, I felt pretty good. I had a good stride going. I slowed down a bit for one team member who developed a blister. She wanted us to go ahead and said she would catch up, but I kept thinking of the toy soldiers from Toy Story. We don't leave any soldiers behind. LOL We ended up finishing the 3 mile in an hour. My goal is to build up to a combo run/walk.
Today was awesome. My cousin Robert and his wife Candy made a generous donation and Robert forwarded my page to his colleges at KinderMorgan. I can't log on to my page right now because of maintenance, but I know three or four of his friends donated (I wish I could list their names, but I will soon). I am just in awe of their generosity. I want to thank you for helping the Society get one step closer to finding a cure.

(and don't forget to get new batteries for your Ipod... pretty frustrating when battery goes dead 1 hour into race...
