Week 2 ahead.

Due to the mini flu there was minimal training this week.
I did make it to the Coach led training and walked 3 miles on Saturday.

Saturday was a sad day for Team though.
One of our honorees, Andy, had passed away on January 28th only a few days before the kick-off meeting.
He was only 15 and had been fighting a good fight.
Right after our walk was his memorial and a lot of my Team mates went.

Last season we lost a few honorees and it reminds me everytime why the fundraising is so necessary.

San Diego Rock and Roll ( my marathon) is by far the biggest fundraiser for the Leukemia Society.
To date 122.1 million dollars have been raised by people just like me.

Amazing isn't it?
Money for research and patient care, it's really needed.

So with Andy on my mind and my goal firmly established I am going to keep walking and start with week 2 of my training.
