Welcome!

Welcome to my blog!  It's great to have you be a part of my training as I prepare to run my third half-marathon!

First, some background...

I'm not really a runner.  I'm too lazy and undisciplined to be a real runner.  I started running one year ago in May and I'm pretty sure if it wasn't for running partner, my husband and my kids, I would have quit in June.

But -

I am passionate about the mission of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and in particular the yearly Light the Night Walk. This year, I am going to use running as part of my fundraising efforts towards my goal of $2,000.

You can follow my training progress on this site.  I promise to be entirely candid and honest about the training - you will get to know the good, the bad and the ugly of training and leukemia and lymphoma.

My fundraising site is http://pages.lightthenight.org/mn/TwinCiti11/ReneeHedstrom

Thanks for joining me on this adventure.
