In the summer of 2010 my Grampa was diagosed with ALS. A week and 1/2 before Christmas he passed away from complications of the disease. In looking ahead at 2011, I have made it my resolution to run a 5K each month of the year to raise money and awareness for the ALS Association. Every step of the way he is with me and every step of the way we are helping those that will receive the diagnosis this year and/or are currently living with the devastating disease that is ALS. Please donate if you are able by visiting the following link to the Community of Hope Fund page set up in Grampa Hudson's memory. You could donate a small amount each month or a large lump sum for the year, no amount is too small and you can do it when its most convenient for you! http://web.alsa.org/goto/hudsonshoofer

Blizzard Blues ad Sleepy Shoes

Well this week has been a little tougher than usual with the NE Blizzard and all. Monday I was able to get in my run though the shoes are still causing the sleepy feet issue. Tuesday in order to beat the snow I went home after work and did Jillian's Michael's Shred and a Bollywood Dance vids on demand. Yesterday 2 hours of shovelling comprised my workout efforts ... cant exactly run in white out conditions. Tonight is break night because we have a date with Gianna's Bridal for Ash's wedding.

Friday the plan is a 30 min run after work and Saturday the plan is Group Power hour while I'm at work. I've got t-minus 1 week before the first 5K .... the Fudgsicle 5K in Tewksbury with the GLRRs so next week will be pivotal in the training department, so stay away snow so that I can get an outdoor run in!
