RUN!!

I don't run. I don't run. I don't run. Unless it's from a burning building or to take down Justin Timberlake. But on September 10th, I will run for charity.

Today I registered for my first 5k! It's a goal of mine (see blog post below) that I've had for a few years now but have never had quite the motivation to do it. I've skipped over the ones that have come my way this summer but I know it's getting late in the running/5k season and decided to buckle down and register.

My friend Natalie used to work for the Alpine Adult Center, "which is a nonprofit Alpine School District organization that provides adult individuals with disabilities the opportunity to secure meaningful work in the community, develop valuable work skills, and become a contributing member of our community." I thought it would be a great race to run since I know individuals in my life who are disabled. I know that my $20 contribution (aka registration and tshirt fee) won't make a huge difference but you never know whos' life it might affect.

It is September 10th in Lindon. That gives me almost six weeks to run as much as I can so I don't get totally winded half way through :)

It also feels really good to be reaching the goals I have set up for myself! I need to print them off so that I can cross them off! (I get that from my mother)
