Ok, I know it's been a long while since my last exercise update. Soooo sorry about that. I'm trying to be more consistent and jump back on the bandwagon...again! I could rattle off a ton of lame excuses, all true but still lame...spring break, company in town, planning a birthday party, family fights the flu. Ok, so maybe at least one of those is not so lame. ;)
Anyway, I just wanted to let all of you know that I am now training for my first 5k! Searcy is hosting a Stride to Prevent Suicide 5k and 1 mile Fun Run/Walk. Justin and I are going to run in honor of my brother, Matthew Austin Seabolt, who most of you know died by suicide on August 13, 2009. If you live in this area and would like to join our team, let me know! If you live out of town and would like to participate as a "Spirit Runner", that would be great too (It comes with a t-shirt)! A team registration saves each individual adult $10 off the registration fee so if you're interested, get your money and registration form to me as soon as possible so I can send them all in together. They are also having a memorial butterfly release which I'm really looking forward to watching. Butterflies and dragonflies carry deeper personal and spiritual meaning for me now. They comfort me when I see them because I feel a closer connection to God and Matt when one catches my eye. My family has released butterflies in Georgia on Matt's angelversary, too, so this is another way to feel closer and more connected with them over so many miles.
