Planning Ahead

Here's one guy's take on how to do it.

So I haven't been posting much at all because I've actually been running! I'm not sure how or when it happened, but I slowly slipped into the lifestyle of an active adult, and I have been working on my C25K regiment regularly, plus doing yoga and other activities. Even went swimming today! So I'm slowly working on that Cardio goal, and I'm pretty excited to imagine that when the need arises, I may actually be able to pick up my kid and run for my life.

However, I'm also aware that I'm not invincible, and I'm on the early part of my training as of yet. Thankfully, the folks at the Run for Your Lives 5k race have made the days of my departure a bit easier on my friends and family by offering their funeral services as a prize. I have entered to win this unusual $5,000 award, and am wondering how others will feel about it if I were actually to be randomly selected. Honestly, I don't see it as a negative. $5k is nothing to shake a stick at, and really it was their run that got me off my butt and moving in the first place. Lucky for us all, the chance of me actually winning are practically impossible. But props to the run organizers for a super interesting marketing attempt.
