My Big News!

I've been waiting for weeks now to talk about this!  I've been so excited to learn more so I could share with everyone.

I've decided to join the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America's Team Challenge Half Marathon!  This is a huge fundraising event that will raise money for the research of Crohn's and Colitis.  I will be running the Las Vegas Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon on December 6th with other Team Challenge members from across the nation.  I have chosen to take on this huge event on behalf of Tami and Matthew who both have Crohn's Disease, and I know that thinking of them will keep me motivated and positive throughout the next 15 weeks of training and fundraising.

I will publish a more detailed blog post later, but wanted to get this out.  Please visit my fundraising page at: http://www.active.com/donate/lv09dcvirginia/eblakemore as well as my dedicated blog to the event: http://www.ccfa-mleblakemore.blogspot.com.

Be excited!  I sure am.  And any donation would be MUCH appreciated!!
