when it occurred to me that I was doing the very thing that I can do to help. I can run.

Please consider this challenge to raise funds for Haiti. A fund for Catholic Relief Services has been created. I invite you to run too! You can join Running For Haiti as a runner, send out your own invites to your own friends and family and send your funds through the same foundation. More information will follow soon!

Run Number One

I ran the first four miles of this journey today. Just four miles...I wonder how far I can run in five or so months? I am a slow runner. No matter how far I can run, it will take a long time to get there!

Running is a thinking process for me. Today, aside from the usual thinking topics, which I might share later, I thought about my request for sponsorship. I have decided that I was somewhat inconsiderate in my request, stating that I was only going to do what I always do, while asking you to do more. So, I, too, will sponsor my runs and pledge $1.00 per mile for the endurance of this project. What about you?

(4 miles)
