There is a lady in the ward that I have become friends with. She is overweight and is trying to get healthy. She decided that she is going to walk the Freedom Run 15k. I've always kind of wondered why people that can't even run would do the race, but I can see why now. She has set a difficult goal for herself and is determined to achieve it. Pretty admirable. Anyway, she wasn't really sure where to start, so I helped her make a training plan and have been going on her long walks with her every Thursday, cause that is her day off of work. She does shorter walks the other days of the week. We are up to 5 miles! She is doing great. We've been bumping it up 1 1/2 miles every week, because she didn't have a lot of time, but she is hanging in there!
