So I've been thinking...

When I first set out to run the race for dad I wanted to do it alone. Travel, run, celebrate alone. But I've been thinking.

I want someone with me. I want friends and family to join in the fun. I want it to be a celebration. I want it to be a big deal!

So...I was just wondering how many of you people out in the blogosphere, who read this, who know me, or who just want to, would like to do the Capital 10K in March with me? You can walk it or run it or push kids in strollers in it even.

Just imagine if a big ol' group of us met there? We could share some hotel rooms, eat out the night before, celebrate afterwards....

And we could all support each other as we trained. Each one of us could determine our goal, find our own unique motivation and on March 29th, 2009 we could celebrate our victories together.

I think it'd be cool. I want to share this with you guys. My friends and family. But I don't just want people cheering from the sidelines. I want you right there with me running or walking for your own reasons.

We could even get matching shirts! "Bloggers who became runners!" : ) or something...

And when I say "you" I mean ANY of you. I'm not just talking to a small group of people - i mean any of you. Even if i hardly know you...or don't at all.

Just think for a minute how cool it would be if a big huge group of us did this together? I just really really think it'd be awesome...and we'd all have our own reasons, our own goals. Once you crossed the starting line it'd just be you versus you. There's no way you could lose.

So...any takers?

You're 6.2 miles from achieving something you never thought you would...

let's do it!
