Have I gone Insane?

It's been a while...I know. After my half marathon I started getting knee pain during and after running. It took me a while to admit that I trained to hard for my half marathon and over training caused me to get injured. I'm still recovering from my half marathon. Icing, taping, using a soft brace for my knee. As a runner it's hard to stop. Running is much like smoking, an addition, a need, a part of you. Which is why I decided I needed it to play a bigger role in my life. I signed up with team in training to run the Scotiabank marathon October 14th, 2012. Now I still need to be medically cleared to run that distance, but I'm confident I can always drop down to the half. You know just 21.1km, no big deal!

This time I've decided to cream a team of runners to do this with me. Together we will raise money for Leukemia and Lymphoma and push our bodies in ways we didn't know was possible. I've had seven people say yes to the team, and two are confirmed and signed up.

I'm bringing back this blog, to share my journey, fundraising, struggles and successes with you.

It won't always be smooth sailing, but what in life is?

Here's my fundraising page link. Feel free to show your support!
