New junior member and training update

We have our fourth official member to the team - Briauna - my daughter. I'm going to have to update the link for donations as I realize this one only goes to my donation center.

We have Aimee, Angie, Briauna and Cindy (me) now! THAT's more like it.

I'm not sure each of them knows how important their commitment is to me and how encouraged I feel by their efforts and willingness to take on the 3 day together.

As for me - my training will have to halt temporarily. Tomorrow I have surgery that will enable me to drop one of the medications that I'm currently taking and hopefully pave the way for a decrease in pain in my life. I'll be unable to train for a few weeks, but when that's over, I'll be on the 24 week training plan posted on the 3 day website for participants.

Thanks everyone. I've had a few offline donations come in that I'll be updating online soon.

If anyone has fund-raising ideas - I'd love to hear them. We are expecting to complete a fund-raiser fashion show (especially now that we have our very own runway model), a bake sale (though I'm not sure what the best venue will be) and a multi-family yard sale. There's also been talk about partnering with Althea's Footwear to find someone to offer foot massages at her retail location as an additional fundraiser.

Leave a comment and share your thoughts and ideas.

  3. Hi Cindy! I talked to Aimee about this at-length on Friday and donated to the cause. :-)

    I also gave Aimee a lot of tips as well when it comes to the 3-day since my hobby is ultramarathon running and being on my feet for hours on end is something I am VERY familiar with. If you have any questions yourself, please do not hesitate to ask me via Facebook or by email (jonyoon at gmail).

    I'm rooting for you Cindy! You can do this!
