Ever since my Ragnar, it’s been a bit difficult for me to get back into running.

 

Ragnar Relay

 

Even after the Boston Marathon last week, I’ve been slacking in the motivation and the execution department.

 

However, after watching my 7 year old win the relay race for his first grade team in the local All City Track Meet (after winning the Jog-A-Thon with the equivalent of a 10K in 60 minutes),

my running mojo was reignited and I’m proud to announce….

that both Wild Boy and I are being sponsored to run

the 2014 LiveUltimate RUN Los Angeles on Sunday, May 25th!

Even though I’m not at the pace level of Ryan Hall, I’m excited to be participating in this run with my child.  I’m proud to exemplify the sentiments of the Live Ultimate doctrine – Live Happy.  Live Healthy.  Live Ultimate.

Isn’t that what we all want to do?
