“If we doubted our fears instead of doubting our dreams, imagine how much in life we’d accomplish!” – Joel Brown
9 out of 10 things you worry about never find themselves worth the worry…..yet, the stuff that really rocks us in this world…we never saw coming. So live in the moment. Jason Mraz says it best in his lyrics….
I will not waste my days
Making up all kinds of ways
To worry ’bout all the things
That will not happen to me
So I just let go
Of what I know I don’t know
And I know I only do this by
Living in the moment
Living my life
Easy and breezy
With peace in my mind
With peace in my heart
With peace in my soul

Women’s 5K Classic, Saturday October 12 starting at 9AM in the Lehigh Parkway.
You CAN RUN/WALK 3.1 MILES…..TRUST ME!!! If you can do a Tuesday class it is proven you can already run 2.5 miles. I, myself, never run….it bores me….the last time I ran was last year at this 5K and it was one of the best times I have had. I enjoyed watching the looks and smiles of all the ladies I love most doing something they thought they couldn’t! It is very rewarding to wear that shirt in the Valley….knowing you are one of the many women making a difference for women locally. You are supporting women you know, women you don’t know and you are showing yourself that you are stronger than you had thought.
No stress here…this is not the Boston Marathon….this is a bunch of women, running….stopping and walking….laughing with each other….cheering each other on….your fellow class mates will be there helping and supporting and pushing you. AND I PROMISE…..YOU WILL FEEL EMPOWERED!!!
We will meet at IFFC to car pool as usual, drive down to the Parkway and group together for our group photo. We hang and enjoy the festivities. Run starts close to 10 o’clock. It will take approximately 30-50 minutes for all of us to cross the finish line….and if its more….WE WAIT….no big deal! Than we are going to regroup and tailgate a bit….hang out with each other….MORE ON THAT TO COME! (You can also sign up for the WALK in the park….now what is your excuse??) Women everywhere get through breast cancer treatments….YOU CAN GET THROUGHT 3.1 MILES…heck…I can DRAG you THAT FAR!
Sign up and be part of the event with us. We were the top team donation last year with all our fundraising efforts and hope to be there again! Register your team as SHAKE IT. (ONLY THAT, NOT TEAM SHAKE IT, NOT SHAKE IT WITH KELLY)
