A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step

For the past few years, I've thought about training for a marathon. I researched different training groups and races, but could never commit to actually signing up. It wasn't until a couple weeks ago that I decided that this year was THE year. So...I called my local Team in Training (TNT) group, went to an informational meeting and signed up for Honolulu! Woohoo!!

I have a long road ahead of me, but I'm absolutely thrilled about taking the first step towards completing a marathon. Most importantly, training for Honolulu will help raise money for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, a great organization that funds blood cancer research, education and support services. Please check out my fundraising page to make a donation to a wonderful cause!

Training officially starts on Saturday, August 1st. If you'd like to train with TNT, contact me at jmalicse@hotmail.com and I'll give you all the details!

I'll be updating the blog regularly, so check back often!
