Running For A Cause

One of the things that lure me to running are the organized races that I enter. Each contest is usually associated with a donation to find a cure, aid a cause, or to raise funds to help others who struggle. I am always on board when I can give in any little way that I am able. My next race in July is to assist those afflicted with addiction. The contest is in my community and hopefully my small donation will help.

I often think I too was addicted to food, but it was bad food that I would crave and need to eat on a daily basis. I know that it is a lifelong struggle and with the help of my family and friends I can face each day knowing that I have their love and support, so why not give back. If you would like to join me, here is the link for the 5k, which you can run or walk on July 7th, 2012:

Keep healthy and fit by being lured for good cause and purpose!
