Life not training, and an awesome cause

So what have I been up to? Sleep, tv, and making permanent indentions into the couch. I think I have formed my own groove in the couch I seem to be there so often. It was nice at first just because I think your body appreciates the downtime after IM training, but now I am just tired all the time from not working out and possibly getting too much sleep. I do have to say I had a blast at Ashley Long’s get together. She had great food, great people, and her parents are awesome. I have enjoyed the weekends. I have volunteered every weekend for the past 3 weeks, and it’s nice to give back to the community that is always helping me out. This leads into the AWESOME cause I referenced above. Most of you are used to me raising money for cancer, which is an important cause, but the cause dearest to my heart is Multiple Sclerosis. I have recently had 2 people I know that are raising money for MS, and I can’t help but support them 100%.
 
The first person is Brad, and I put him first b/c he hasn’t met his goal yet. Brad’s mom has MS, and he is doing his first Ironman in her honor. For those of you who don’t know much about MS, if you read a little about it you will see why it’s so important to raise money for a cure. Currently, there isn’t any cure, and MS can have a huge effect on quality of life. Everyone that has it can have different symptoms, some people go blind and aren’t effected in any other way, while others lose their ability to get around, and lastly some are effected by cognitive functions. PLEASE donate to this cause, just click on the link provided. I know that Brad would appreciate any amount large or small. http://main.nationalmssociety.org/site/TR/Walk/NCPWalkEvents?px=4354800&pg=personal&fr_id=8784&s_tafId=72055
 
Lucy Allen is the other person raising money. Lucy is going to do her first 75 mile ride, and I couldn’t be more proud of her to take on this challenge. I was lucky enough to be there when Lucy completed her goal last year of her first olympic distance triathlon, and can’t wait to see her finish her huge goal this year. I will put her link up as soon as I get it if you would like to help support her!
