Getting Started

My Day One.

Well… you have to start somewhere…

I’m 52 years old, a teacher, wife, mother of four, pet owner of six… needless to say, I am busy. I, too, volunteered at the Silverman. Although it was very inspiring to watch people of all shapes, sizes, and physical ability cross the finish line, I was actually challenged to train and participate in the Silverman 2010. Between working, chauffeuring my son to school and keeping up with my grown kids…I wanted to quit already.  But noooooooo…. my partner in crime won’t let me.  So I am starting with the run one minute /walk one minute.  I started by walking my husbands dog.  She pulled me hard , so I ran.  Then I pulled her hard , so we walked.  We did that for 20 minutes.  We were both mad at each other by the time we returned home. I did it though!
