runforcourage.org

I just found the runforcourage.org website through the fire department's website. I will be signing up, it will cost me 30 $ to run in Folsom on Oct. the 8th (Saturday.) I am not really in shape for this but, what the heck? Its a good cause. They are raising funds to put a stop to sex trafficking and you know I'm all about spitting in the eye of injustice.

Don't be Stupid

I love to jog. I love to go outside. I even love the rain. When the forecast is lightening don't go for a run. That would not be smart. Its ok to do some cross training indoors. Really, it is ok. Some times we get so enamored of our training schedule or goals that we lose sight of whats important, living. Its really important because if you aren't alive you won't be able to run a single step so don't be stupid. Run when the lightening is over ok?

Thanks,

The El Dorado Hills Dieter

3. I can't hear the music by James Blunt

4. Next in line by Meese (is that plural for mouse or moose?)

10. Touch by Natasha Bedingfield
