2011 New York City Half Marathon Training - January 9

Hi! Some updates on my training and fundraising:
It has been a little over a month since I have started training and fundraising with TNT. TNT (Team in Training) is a charity sports training program that raises funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society... I joined them last year for my first endurance event (Ride to Montauk Century), which i did in memory of my father. I have joined them again this year for my first Half Marathon and yesterday...just got my first pair of running shoes and this morning...i just ran my first 5 miles ever at the Fred Lebow Classic 5 miler.


TNT coaches and mentors were there to cheer and the purple t-shirts were everywhere. I am attaching some things related so you can see where I am: fundraising page and some photos...of course running partners, advice, cheering and contributions are always welcome!

Also, as a bonus this year my very good friends Maryellen and Betsy (see photo) have joined TNT as well. Please make sure to check out their progress and pages as well.



Thank you for checking this out!
