My First Blog!

Hello Everyone!

Thank you for visiting my blog and reading my very first entry. I lie this isn't my first blog. My first one was when I had Xanga but that had maybe 3 entries in it and it was rambling on about nothing. This blog is FOCUSED! This blog as Determination! Okay maybe that is too much but I wanted to do this blog so I can inspire others that have inspired me!

I got this idea from my sorority (Gamma Phi Beta- Delta Psi Chapter) little little little sis Rachel W. Check out her amazing Runner's Blog!
A blog is such a nice way to record your adventures and if this gets ONE person to donate or run or just have a healthier lifestyle I have totally done my job.

I am excited to say that I have joined TEAM CHALLENGE!
They are an organization that raises funds for the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America and they are going to be training me for my first half marathon. It is the Napa to Sonoma Wine Country Half Marathon in Napa, CA on July 18th, 2010.



Mind you I have only done one 5k and that was a couple months ago. This is a big jump for me but I am willing to take on this challenge.

I have to raise 2600.00 by July. I only set up my website yesterday and I've already had some generous people donate! YOU are helping Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of American find a cure.
