I just wanted to add my thanks for plugging Team in Training as well. I'm currently fundraising and training with TNT to walk the Rock 'n' Roll San Diego half marathon on June 6, 2010. I made a donation to your cause last week. I hope the rest of your fundraising efforts go well!

I have to say running with a close friend/best friend is by far one the best experiences- enjoy every minute of it!!

You are so totally a runner! I’ve thought of you as a runner for ages!

Saw your tweet about the Shamrock 5K – I’m doing a Shamrock 5-miler this Saturday! Must be a popular theme :)

And, oh yeah – I’m still not sure if I’m a runner. In fact, yesterday I was telling my boot camp trainer that I’m not sure I’m a real workout kinda person actually, & she was like, “Oh, yes, you are!”

I want to say that running has opened up a whole new world for me. Two years ago, I was overweight and would NEVER I mean NEVER even THINK about running somewhere…. let alone in a race.

But since I started… and changed my life, I have learned not only to learn to like running… I mean, I am pretty uncoordinated, so its easy for me…. but I have also learned about all the cool races that they have around.

Running in Boston and Fenway Park is SO COOL!!! I have a friend that was telling me that she ran a 10K last year in Indianapolis and go to go out on the 500 Track…. I mean, I GOTTA DO THAT!!

It seems like there is a new one every week that I hear about that I want to go and check out. It really is a great hobby!!!!

Thanks for your blog. I enjoy!

I don’t have another to share, but I wanted to second your Team in Training suggestion. I trained for the very first time with TNT last year, and I ran a half and a full marathon… something I never dreamed I’d do! It was such an amazing program that I’ve decided to stay on… I’m a training coach for the current season, and I’ll be training again next year.

Maybe you could do some raffles like Caitlin at HTP is doing to raise money for her Century bike race.
