So the challenge has been given. Take a guy who has never run before and work with him in training until he is ready to run a 5 or 10 K in the Route 66 Races in November! This could be the biggest challenge to date, but then again, I love a challenge!

Sloan, our dietician, has agreed to begin working with me toward this incredible goal. She SAYS she can do it! Who am I to tell her no?! This would be a major accomplishment, considering that the atrophe in my legs from the time of my transplant was still very evident when we started our Move It year. Tolise, our trainer, has brought me great progress in this area.

Our first step (no pun intended) is to get shoes. This weekend will begin our journey, and I hope you'll join me, as we race toward better health!
