5,215 Reasons to Run......

83......yup, that is the number of responders in building the RunForTheThree. Incredible. Each day more and more forms make their way into my mailbox and each day we all take a step closer to helping make a difference. To date from all 83 responders the RFTT effort has managed to raise over $5215 for the Steffan Children's Education Fund.

To all that have responded from the bottom of my heart, I say thank you. To those that haven't, there are exactly 42 days left until the Cleveland Marathon and I pound out 26.2 miles in tribute to Kyle. Forms can be downloaded here or you can fill out an electronic pledge form by going to http://www.runforthethree.com/.

Training, well let's just say as of this week a slight "setback" has occurred. It's nothing that will keep me from running the marathon or pushing the 3:10 mark....it's just a little something that makes the journey all that much more special. The legendary machine of a man that is Lance Armstrong once said...."Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit however, it lasts forever.” Enough said.......
