learning how to ask for support

It’s official. I have committed. Now maybe I should be committed. Jen and I have signed up for the Nike Women’s Marathon through Team in Training. Actually Jen should be committed, she signed up for TWO marathons! But we all know it’s because she really wanted to go to Maui in March and the universe has informed her that she was wrong and she’s going in September.

What was the point here? Right. This is about more than “See Dr. Suz get fit”, it’s also about a good cause. In exchange for training support, Team in Training asks that participants raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma society. Maybe it’s because I’ve reached a certain age, or maybe it’s something else altogether, but it seems that cancer is affecting someone dear every day. This is one small way I can make a difference. But – and here’s the hard part for me – I need your help. Please support the people I know and those you know who are fighting blood cancers by donating to this cause.

Stay tuned.  I will use this space to track my program, both financial and fitness.
