Posh, and Becks, and us on the run

First off, we caught a bit of the NBC show about Victoria Beckham coming to America. I have to say, she does seem a bit wacky, but not at all ridiculous. If they play it again, watch it for a few minutes, just to give it a try, you'll be entertained. But that's not the big news...
Jen and I signed up for this:
Rock and Roll Marathon in Phoenix
We are going to do it through Team in Training. This means a few things. First, we'll have coaches, mentors, group runs, motivation, gifts, food, flights to Phoenix, and a hotel room right by the starting line. Also, we're going to need to raise about $3100 each. So, don't be surprised if you get a letter in the mail, or an email asking for support.
Why are we doing this? Well, the race itself is on Jen's 30th birthday, so she thought that it would be a fun thing to do on her birthday. The reason we're doing it through Team in Training, is that 75% of the money we raise will actually go to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. When Jen and I were freshly married, we were in a small group with other newlyweds. There was a couple, Aaron and Amanda, who were around 21ish. She had already had her lifetime dose of chemothrapy, and her cancer had come back. She was an amazing, and caring person, and for someone that young, she had more people at her funeral, who had their lives' touched by her than most people who have lived full lives. She died two years ago, yesterday... the day we went to the information meeting to sign up for the marathon.
I love when "coincidences" happen.
