Running Across America to inspire people to follow their passions
Alright so... I've run a few marathons and know firsthand that it's a lot of miles to do something like that. But what this girl is doing is just plain crazycakes, in a good way. She is literally running across America just to inspire people to follow their passions, AND to raise money for Girls On The Run, an amazing organization.

I thought a lot of you might think this is super awesome like i do, so check the site out if you get a chance!

I don't know how she does it. The fact that she's doing it for a good cause is great though, instead of doing it just to prove a point.

haha okay! it'll be the true test.



how much do you usually run ayca? i like that this program trains girls to run 5K. i tried to do that myself one summer but never got passed the first week of just walking a mile fast, even though that was easy.

Julia, when I first started to get back into running from...pretty much nothin' I followed this



running every other day to 5k pretty much at a nice pace

awesome.



well, right now i'm not training for anything specific, but i might be running the NYC marathon next november, so i'll have to build my base back up starting now, and i'll start hardcore marathon training in probably may or so?



after my last marathon, i decided my body needed a break from all the pounding. but running is really liberating! you should try for a 5k again next summer =)
