I stayed up too late last night keeping up with all that is happening with the Weathers family via email and Caring Bridge. I slept a little late this morning, so instead of running, I got back on the site to check for progress. Unfortunately, the situation continues to deteriorate.
Didn't get too much done at work as Jason continued to weigh heavily on my mind and heart. I did leave for a while and go up to the LLS office and turn in my registration for the Team in Training program. I am now officially participating in the marathon on January 18, 2009.
The real purpose of the program is the fundraising to support the mission of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I think with all that has gone on over the past few days, the urgency to find a cure for others who will be stricken with a blood cancer is clear. I am actually putting together my campaign now and will start looking for supporters in the next few weeks.
If you would like to give now, please feel free to follow this link to my personal fundraising page where you can pay by a credit card, or you can send a check to the mailing address listed in the first post of the blog.

Once I got home today, I did get my run done just before the rain. Covered 2.3 miles in 30:13. Actually felt a little better than I have on any of the previous runs. My feet didn't bother me this afternoon either. This is the last day of the run 1 minute, walk 2 minute intervals. I am supposed to do it tomorrow, but think instead I will go to the Y and ride a bike and rest the feet. Sunday is rest, and then Monday we increase to run 2 minutes and walk 1 minute (we hope).
