The cause

I have been planning to run in the NYC marathon and have been figuring out my options to get in. I entered a lottery already and was looking into running for a charity. then, the thought occurred to me to run for the National Diabetes Foundation. I still need to get the detail, but this is my plan. My mom passed away 8 years ago from complications due to diabetes. And, part of our business is teaching people how to lose weight, be healthy and avoid such diseases. So, tonight I come home and I see an email from my niece, Erin about a run that she is rounding up my family to do for colon cancer. My Uncle John, my mom's brother passed away this year from colon cancer. Of course I will be doing that run as well. It's amazing to me sometimes how events and thought and people are all connected, if we are only open to it. Erin's taking action and making this happen has motivated me to step it up and turn my idea into a reality.
