San Francisco...


So I don't think I've told you this, but I'm running a half marathon in October. Which is more running than I had planned on doing this year since my goal was to do a full marathon (checked that off the list in May). But anyway, this is not just any old half marathon...it is the Nike Women's (Half) Marathon. Which means there is a mile of Ghiradelli chocolate. And I get a Tiffany's necklace. And an awesome Nike Dri-Fit finisher t-shirt. And it means I get to go to San Francisco! (I've never been before.)


Today was the inaugural training day which was a bit of strengthening + stretching. So excited to get back into training for an actual event. Wish me luck and good health!

Running for a Cause

Like I mentioned a few weeks ago, I will be running my first full marathon this year on May 1st. To motivate me through the training and also because I believe this is a great organization, I'm raising money for Samaritan's Purse during these months leading up to the race. Specifically, the money I raise will go to clean water projects in Uganda. This video says it better than I can, so if you feel lead, you can click here to watch it.



If you feel compelled, I would appreciate your prayers for an injury-free training + race. And if you'd like to donate money to the cause, you can do so by clicking here: http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/alicia-clinton/aliciaclinton
