It's been a dream of mine for almost two years now. I've been wanting to raise money for the Lymphoma and Leukemia Society since my uncle passed away, from a lymphoma disease, in July 2007.
They just sent me the information package via email .. and it says that I would need to raise over 5000$ (for my expenses to be covered) by October 2009. Oufff .. that's a lot of money.I'm thinking, last year, my mom and I did the Canadian Cancer Society's Relay for Life and together we raised 1000$ .. so 5000$ by myself sounds IMPOSSIBLE right now.
And, I would have to train very hard to get in shape .. to run a marathon or half-marathon by October.
AND, I need to decide by tomorrow 5pm.
Ugh, this is so discouraging. This is one of my dreams right now and it's not looking good. I knew it wouldn't be easy but still .. it sounds totally impossible, right ???

It doesn't sound impossible! Just really tough. But really, those are the most rewarding things.
I'm with Rachel... definitely not impossible! You can do it love.
**Update** After consulting with Miguel and Lolita, I've decided to postpone this dream until next year. Lolita might even join me on this adventure since we've been talking about visiting California together for years now.
