so we don't officially start training till the week of May 14th; however we thought we'd walk today....so....we're still playing around with this blog among other things & haven't actually stepped foot outside. i think we're about to have a contest to see who can hold their legs in the air the longest. i currently hold the championship title.
this picture is from our last Children's Miracle Network. this was the year that we had already left Texas A&M but came back to dance. it was the hardest 40 hours ever! we played the panty hoe game - you know where you put a pair of panty hose on your head that have socks in the toes. you swing around & try to connect with your opponent's panty hoe & pull theirs off. very fun & very competitive.
the real point of the 40 hours is that our pain & discomfort is so small compared to that of the kids that CMN serves. this was just one of our "physical giving" events. we participated in 3 dance marathons, 1 6 hour aerobic marathon, and countless other 5ks for various charities. E has participated in the Team in Training Triathalons for Leukemia. it is fitting that this year we should devote our attention to breast cancer - this, our year, to celebrate our friendship and our friends, to honor and remember all of those that have been affected by this cancer.
okay, i have to go walk. ....go! cheers - m
