PossAbilities Challenge

I come from a family of athletes. My dad, a professor of Exercise Science, is all about sports. My younger brother is the same, and my mom has always been a runner. Me - not so much. But, I've decided to change all that and start running. I've been putting in 30 minutes of cardio a day for almost 3 weeks now. This is my longest work-out streak ever! As great as daily exercise is, I decided to take it a step further and set a goal for myself. So, I signed up to do a 5K here at Loma Linda called PossAbilities Challenge. PossAbilities is a really awesome community outreach program for individuals with disabilities.

Here's a really inspiring video about PossAbilities:


As a participant in the race, I get the opportunity to raise money for PossAbilities. My goal is to raise $50. I can't wait to run my very first race, April 29.

For those that are interested, here's my personal web page for PossAbilities:
