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

Snow on the Horizon

Week 1 is coming to a close. Tuesday was a rock solid cross training night with 45 mins of kick boxing and 45 mins of Zumba. Wednesday my running faired no better. I need to get to the bottom of the mystery of the falling asleep feet ... damn you Reebok RunTones, I have been excited about you and now you're making my feet disappear.

Thursday I took a break in an effort to battle this cold I've been sporting for 4 days, today the cold is no better but I'm saying screw it and am signed on for an hour of Group Power and an hour of Zumba. Tonight will be for relaxation.

The weekend is jam packed with the Small Xmas party tomorrow and work 13 hours on Sunday but there will be plenty of gym time built in in between. I'm hoping to get the 3 min warm up, 8min run, 3 min walk x2, 2 min cool down solid by then so that Monday can progress to phase 2 of training.

Have a good weekend ya'll, here's hoping you dont live in the NY area and aren't going to get pummelled by snow :)
