So I received this flier in the mail last year and again this year for an organization called Team in Training for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. There's going to be an Omaha Marathon & Half-Marathon: Run/walk on September 23. The informational meeting is on Saturday May 12th. I've been debating on whether to participate, whether I can get into good enough shape to finish, whether I'll have enough time to devote to it, that kind of thing. So Dean suggested that I start a challenge for myself until the informational meeting to see if I can feel like I can do it. So here I am!
So my goal, is to work out on a daily basis (a day taken off only to rest my muscles if necessary), doing at least some kind of work out, whether walking, biking or strength training. The only times I can workout is in the morning before work, during my split shift in the middle of the afternoon after my daughter's school gets out, and after I get home from work at 7:45pm.
So I kind of started yesterday with a walk and then a bike ride. This morning I'm going to do some strength training for my upper and lower half. Now I'm off!!

Great idea, Manaloa!
You might even consider joining the The Magic Bus World Tour!
We can use all the help we can get!
Keep us posted on this.

Manaloa,
Awesome! Say... do you wanna compute those miles, and put 'em in the World Tour? We could use all the help we can get... after all, we've got the whole world to go around!
