The Running Backs

I AM A RUNNING BACK

I am one of a group of people who are running the LA Marathon in March 2011 to support our inspirational Michelle in her journey to improve her scoliosis by raising money towards her medical expenses.

To learn more about Michelle's journey, visit http://www.backfactor.blogspot.com/

We are also raising money to begin a scholarship fund for a young person to receive treatment from The Clear Institute in St Cloud, Minnesota, a revolutionary wholistic center that uses non-surgical chiropractic-based treatment to improve the lives of those living with scoliosis.

To follow my journey to the finish line and to follow Michelle's journey to a healthier back, please follow this blog.

Thanks for the support, Rebel

Another team member and another week of training

My good friend, Danielle has taken up the challenge and signed up for the Marathon an the Road Runners. She ran in her first training session on Tuesday and seemed to take it all in her stride. She is such an amazing person who was so eager to sign up and support our team. We only met two months ago and I was really touched when she agreed to sign up without even meeting Michelle. She's a great runner too.

Me on the other-hand...well, I was ok but pulled up pretty sore on Sunday and Monday, got myself a head-cold and have been feeling pretty crappy all week. I had such a busy weekend and could tell that I was tired and needed to rest but didn't listen to my body. Hence sickness.

Nothing serious though and I am determined to run on Saturday as we are running 5 miles and I don't want to get behind. I have also made friends with a cool chick in my Roadrunners group and have agreed to run together so I don't want to let her down.

I have two events for work this week - Thursday I have a wine tasting for 250 at the NZ Consul-General's residence and on Friday we are doing ANOTHER AFL Grand Final party since they drew last week and were not smart enough to play extra time and get it all done in one night. knuckles.

Packet goes to St Cloud Minnesota on Sunday for two weeks so I am trying to stay away from her so that she doesn't catch my cold. I am not looking forward to her being away for two weeks but am very excited by what the treatment will bring. Her back is looking better every day and she is strong and healthy.

i will have more personality next time I promise x x
