<p>At first, I was running for myself, but now I will run to raise money for the victims of Japan's devestating tsunami.</p> <p>I decided to do this race as a challange to myself. The last time I ran a race was when I was fifteen and I was awful at it. So I quit.</p> <p>However, I decided to challenge myself and complete this run! I began training 3 weeks ago, starting with literally baby steps and worked my way up to a good run. So far so good.</p> <p>However, with the events of the last few days here in Japan, doing this to help raise money for tsunami victims seems more fitting then my own personal goal.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Please give what you can so people can survive and start to rebuild their lives.</p> <p>Thank you.</p>
