Bryn's Army Virtual Race

It is time to begin registering for 5K Rockstars first virtual race!

This race will benefit little Brynlee in Southern Nevada.

You can check out her fight against cancer on her facebook page Bryn's Army.

Once you purchase your virtual race registration you will receive an e-mail with instructions on how to join our 5K racing group and where to post pics of you completing your race. All ages and abilities welcome. We appreciate everyone who walks or runs for Brynlee, and offer a discount when purchasing more than one registration. 

Once registration is closed your race bling will be mailed to you via USPS. For this race it will be a custom dog tag with ball chain necklace. (Photo is a mock up)

We would really appreciate all the word of mouth we can get for this event. Brynlee is the daughter of my very best friend of 22 years. Any stress I can take off their shoulders is worth every minute to me. 

God Bless and Get Racing!

Work Hard Wednesday

Happy Work Hard Wednesday!

Have you ever noticed that when you are motivated to get something done you generally go above and beyond normal? The In-laws are coming to town and you'll be darned if the MIL finds a speck in your kitchen so you scrub it back to brand-new status. Maybe you feel like running and you head out and not only get a run in, but take in your beautiful surroundings that fill your brain with joy. Do not let these moments pass you by! These are your 'certificate' moments. The moments you can give yourself an imaginary award like 'most-improved runner' or 'Project Kitchen MVP'. 

Once we grow up we don't get those pretty little papers that tell us we are awesome. 

We have to give them to ourselves mentally.

And you deserve them.

No matter how small.

Work hard today.

And give yourself a certificate.

What will your certificate be for?

Bryn's Army

I spoke briefly yesterday about my life long friend's daughter recently having her kidney removed due to cancer in this post. I know I need to do a fundraiser for my friend and her family, and have been pondering what type of fundraiser will bring in the most donations. Six years ago I did a fundraiser for my other friend's daughter who had nueroblastoma. We had a dress sale called 'Dresses for Dreams' and sold previously worn prom and wedding dresses for $10 each. In a little over 2 hours of the sale we raised almost $800. Since them my little hero, Miss A, is conquering the world wheelchair style as a very active 3rd grader. 
 Now it is time to take some stress of Miss B's mom's shoulders. Worrying about co-pays is the LAST thing she needs to be doing right now. Miss B is currently undergoing radiation and chemotherapy treatments. You can read more about her and like her facebook page here. 

With that being said, I am in the midst of organizing a virtual 5K, 10K, half, and full marathon that will benefit Miss B's family. Registration will be $30 and you will receive a blinged out medal in the mail. You can run your miles anytime from August 1st-30th. There will also be a group to share your pics and times along with other goodies that may spring up by then. More details will arise soon once the proof for the medal arrives. 

Please share with your running buds. I have a big goal for this and plan to go above and beyond for my good friend.


Have you ever ran a virtual race?

Go!

Lace up whatever sneakers you have and get out there. 

If you are nervous about running you can:

just walk

walk one block/jog one block

walk 3 minutes/run 30 seconds

listen to music and run during the chorus of each song

It doesn't matter where or how you start, but GET STARTED.

*Bonus* Write it down on your calender and don't let 2 days go by without getting that body moving!

Remember YOU ROCK!
