I had to share this!  My Team Endure to Cure shirt and visor arrived in the mail today and after I had opened it, I set it down on the sofa.  My 6 year old daughter puts it on and says, “Mommy when I turn 18 I am running for this charity and I am going to qualify for Boston.” If that isnt motivation, I dont know what is!

But what she doesn’t realize is that she doesn’t have to wait until she is 18 to make a difference or to pursue her dreams.  She completed her first 5k on November 12, 2010 and she didnt take that medal off the entire weekend. I am glad to know that in addition to helping the fight against pediatric cancer, I am also motivating the younger generation to be caring and physically active as well.
