Run Kristin, Run!

........I've been running since January.

As of today, I've run 125.81 miles. Hello! That's amazing. Awesome. Fantastic. Wonderful. I could go on since the word 'great' was killed last year and replaced with bigger and better words, but I know you would probably quit reading. I've logged those 125.81 miles for purely selfish reasons. I want to be more fit, active, in better health, and I want to lose weight.

But now, now I want to do something that is beyond me.

Something that will benefit others.

I've joined Team in Training. I'm TNT! I'm dynamite!

What's a better reason to run than to help raise money that funds the research into leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma. I'm not a nurse and able to give the bedside care that is need. I'm not a doctor and will not be able to diagnose and treat the disease. I'm not a researcher and able to analyze data and create medicines for the doctors to prescribe or to find the cure. Instead, I am but one girl who has chosen to use her new found love for running to help raise money to be put towards the research. Through donations from those generous people I know, I will be able to meet this goal.

I run for those afflicted with these disease, for their families, and for the friends that care about and support them in their time of need.

Please, visit my Team in Training and see what you can do to help. Run Kristin, Run!
