On September 16, 2007 I will be doing the Nautica Malibu Triathlon in memory of my dad, Grant Burns, as part of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team In Training program. In honor of my dad and his love of cycling, I will be riding his bike for the 18 mile cycling portion. My personal goal is to raise $3,000 to support the society's mission to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. http://www.active.com/donate/tntgla/TriBeckieTri

I am wearing TWO shoes!!!!!

Yes it is true, I am now wearing not one, but TWO shoes. I went to the podiatrist today and picked up my specially made orthotics. I got some new running shoes that are nice and firm and keep my foot from bending. I can walk almost normally without it hurting that much with these inserts and tough shoes. Although I would really love to be in flip flops under the California sunshine, I will take running shoes any day over a surgical shoe or cast! Looks like I will be training in about 2-4 weeks. I will continue to do pool exercise classes, swimming, and maybe riding my bike until then! I am glad to have two feet again!
