Thursday Three: Cancer, Running, Survivor Debacle

Thanks for the comments on my post the other day, it was good to vent, and to know I'm not the only one who feels like that from time to time. : )

I'm channeling that negative energy into something positive, by joining Team Davis! You might have heard about Rev 3's Race Across America, their goal is to raise $100,000 to benefit the Ullman Cancer Fund.  Harmony's husband was diagnosed with cancer late last year, so she put together a team for this race.  From March 26 - April 16th I'll be running my usual neighborhood route, and we'll see how may miles Team Davis can cover, and how many dollars we can raise.  I have family and friends who have battled cancer, so I think this is a really great way to join the fight.  Kelly, Colleen and Jen also have links on their blogs that lead to the donation page for Ullman, so check it out if you can.

Speaking of running, I have a race this weekend, a St. Patty's Day four miler. It's one of my favorites, with a fun, festive atmosphere. The one thing I don't like, is that the last mile is ALL uphill, and how all the fast high school runners stand at the sidelines and watch the rest of us struggle to the finish line.  But I do like the post race beers.

And finally, did anyone catch Survivor last night?  Namely, Colton, and the vile things that came out of his mouth?  I couldn't believe what I was hearing, the names he called Leif, and the way he treated Bill, especially during tribal council. What do you think would have happened if Colton was called names?  Talk about double standard.  Not cool Colton, not cool.
