[karebear1]

I can hardly believe it! I just counted the number of WISHers that want to join us in January '05 and we are up to (drum roll please)...............

50 !!!!

and that doesn't include who they are planning on havng walk with them!! Isn't that amazing??

Has anyone started training ? I started the WATP tapes last week. LOVE them! I'm a litle afraid I won't be able to do this! The thought is pretty overwhelming, BUT I really want to do this, so I am just gonna keep posting every once ina while to try to keep me going. Hope you all don't mind !

That is so awesome!! What an amazing group of healthy individuals we will have there. Hopefully we will inspire more people to join us. Thanks for suggesting this idea, it truly is a wonderful motivator for many of us.

WOWSERS, Kare!! That's a lot of WISHers!!! I really really really want to go (and plan on training like I am! tee hee) but simply can't commit at this time because I don't know if the trip itself is feasible! I am watching closely however!

Go Team Go!!!

That is wonderful news, Karen!! I can hardly wait to go!! What a great meet that will be! I definitely agree with VIJA, it is a terrific motivator for me!

I haven't started training yet, but I am hoping my regular workouts will count towards my training. I think maybe a few months before I will start walking more every day and work up to the half marathon distance. My sister has expressed an interest in joining us, so that would up the number again, but she is on the fence and really can't make up her mind yet. When is registration?

I told my husband about this on the weekend, and to my surprise he said, "cool." I thought he'd say that I'm crazy.

I work in a law enforcement office, and I told a couple of the agents about this. They were so supportive and are going to take me to the track 3 times a week.

Jen- that is so exciting that your husband thinks this is a cool thing!! ANd that you are getting support from people at work as well. They're welcome to join if they'd like to! It'd be interesting to know what people who are going on the walk do for a living- it should be one big group of a lot of different careers all with the same goal.

TighH- I'm so ahppy to see you posting! I've missed you! Registration won't be at least until next year- probably around February sometime. We'll be sure to make a very big announcement about that- so nobody will miss it!
