This is the second time this year that I'm sick. That's one more instance than ever recorded of my illness (I normally get sick “once” a year). I don't know what it is (could it be tied to the weather?), but the same person got me sick again — my sis Annelle. Ugh. Getting sick is not even an option for me especially with this week coming up (Holy week), however, I have to deal with it else be unable to do my duties (work, church, etc.)
In other news, I got my new running gear today at the Nike staff training meeting at Niketown in Beverly Hills, CA. Our series this season is actually very kewl; this year, we're helping underprivileged children get healthy through running (they don't have any sports programs in their school!) Nike's been very generous thus far — our Club Run LA program helped sell the “Nike Go” green laces and we raised $5,000 last series! This series, we need to help more kids, so our goal is $20,000! Eek! That's a LOT of laces to sell, but it all goes towards helping the kids of Nike Go. We're also having 10 running locations this series! That's twice as many locations compared to our previous series (ever). It'll be crazy, but great. Check out the Nike Running for more details on Club Run LA — remember, our training runs are FREE, and there're free drinks, snacks and raffles for Nike prizes after each run! /end shameless plug.
Without (even) further adieu, my new running boots:
