Our daughter Kinsley suffered a stroke at birth.  At that time we didn't know what lay ahead.  One year later, I see just how amazing our children are and how they are stronger than we can imagine. I have watched her work with her physical therapist over the last year and do things she doesn't enjoy, while accomplishing extraordinary results.  I have decided that over the next 27 days I will do something that I don't really enjoy.  I will run at least 1 mile each day and will also commit to making up for the 4 days I missed.  I also hope my friends and family will help me with this goal and help me reach 365 miles this month for each day of her first year!    

Please show your support by running with me!  Commit to at least 1 mile a day in May and facebook me what you did.
