Several Gems met at Antrim this a.m. (Constance, Elaine, Amber, Em, Stuart and Buzzy). It was a great day to be outside. Em, Elaine, Constance and Avery grabbed a snack at Northstar afterwards. Delish!
Sunday 11.01.08 training plan:
* Meet upstairs at 5:05 for weight training
* Meet outside at 5:30 for run/walk (if you don't want to weight train, you can just meet us outside for running/walking)
If you need inspiration - take a look at this video of this man and his son. The son is unable to participate in sports so the father put him in a raft and swam 2.4 miles for the Ironman race, then carried him from the boat to the bike (112 miles on the bike), then ran 26.2 miles for the marathon. All in the name of love - simply because the father can and his son cannot. Together, they can do anything.
It's hard to stay motivate with our busy lives. How do get off the couch and hit the pavement when we're so tired. Let this video be your inspiration. Sometimes, we should run just because we "can". What must it be light to be unable to run? And worse, what must it be like if our child can't? So we do what we "can" to celebrate living. Let this father/son duo be your inspiration this week.

Yay! You figured out to add videos! See, I told you it was easy! You're becoming such a techie!
I love the video you posted. I tear up every time I watch it.
Antrim was beautiful yesterday! If anyone is interested in going back who missed the first visit, I would love to do it again.
Thanks for introducing Avery and I to Northstar, Em and Elaine. Yum-0, Avery can't wait to go back!
