Hey everyone I thought I'd post this here since there are a lot of great people on this site! I hope ya'll will help me out!
I wanted to let you know of something that has become very important to me.
Some of you already may or may not know. I have decided to train (run) for a marathon! Yep, you heard it right....a marathon!! This is more than a personal goal, I am helping raise funds for the American Stroke Association--funds for stroke research education as well as to help improve the quality of life of stroke victims and their families. This really hits home to me after seeing the effects of this disease in my own family.
On that note, I am running this race in honor of my grandfather, Bud, who not long ago suffered from a stroke. He is my stroke Hero!! I know that if he can overcome all the challenges presented to him after his stroke, then I know I can run 26 miles! I love you papaw!!!:D
I willl be running many many miles over the next five months to prepare for the San Diego Marathon (June 5). I will also be busy raising my goal of $4,000 for the American Stroke Association on behalf of all people affected by stroke. I am asking for your support in this, through your good thoughts and prayers, and through a generous conribution to the American Stroke Association. I am hoping that my family, friends(and internet friends!!) will help me acheive my goal! Did I mention that your donation is tax-deductible??:D
Thanks everyone, in advance, for your consideration.
My donation website is:

Sorry I wrote a book! :D
