Fifth Practice - Valley Forge

Attendance was good for the first practice after the holidays. Almost nine miles were completed during today's training session at Valley Forge for full marathon participants. The hills were tough during the second loop, but were manageable!

Next Sunday, we return to Kelly Drive for our first team attempt at running ten miles. What a great way to start the new year!

About Me

I became involved with Team In Training during the Spring 2007 season by training for the New Jersey Marathon in Long Branch, New Jersey. Prior races include several 5K and 10K events, and one half marathon. Training for an endurance event takes a lot of commitment, courage, and vision. Looking back on my casual running experience for the past two decades, I never imagined training for a marathon! Through Team In Training, I found a great training program, developed new friendships, and made a significant impact by raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma from taking more lives. I am continually inspired by our featured team heroes and the personal stories from friends, family, and teammates that were shared during my initial fundraising for the cause. Please enjoy reading the past stories of my experience.
