Handmade Items to benefit TNT



Check out my Etsy store for items that I have hand made (jewelry mainly) and which all proceeds will go to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.  I've decided to offer these items to help with my Team in Training fundraising efforts.  (Here are just a few sample pictures of items I have available.)

Completed my first GTS

Here we go!!  Saturday, 11/22, was our first group training session (GTS).  Since it was our first GTS, all teams met together.  It was fun to be with the bigger TEAM for the whole Nashville area for this first GTS.  We also attended clinics on safety, nutrition, strength training and injury prevention.  Then we all went out and did our first run...2 miles through HILLS!!  I think the first hill kept growing as we were running up it - crazy.  It was fun though.  I met several members on my TEAM and even one member who is already done with all of her fundraising!  Awesome.  Oh, and we also got a free "tech" Team in Training hat.  I just LOVE free stuff! :-)

Team in Training (TNT) for Country Music 1/2 Marathon!!

This spring I will be running my 2nd half-marathon, this time with Team in Training (TNT).  I have a big goal and need a lot of help.  Not only will I be running 13.1 miles, I am also raising funds to help find a cure for blood-related cancers.  I'm asking everyone I know to please visit my TNT page and donate what they can.  Even $5 will make a big difference!  I will also be posting highlights from my training on there.

To find out more about my goals and involvement, please go to My TNT Page.
