Happy Friday and a big thank you to everyone for making Fitness Friday a growing success and so much fun!
I don't think a day goes by that I'm not truly grateful for the support of my husband. He is patient with the time involved in marathon training. He helps with everything around the house. He's encouraging on the days I need it the most. And to top it all off he does this like this. I found this envelope in my suitcase when I was in Chicago.
"To be opened Sunday morning before you run! Love you, Chad"
The words on the envelope alone were priceless and to read what was inside brought tears to my eyes. I will cherish this always. Thank you Chad.
Who makes all that you do possible? Who gives you the encouragement at just the right time?

Hi Jill!
Linking up this week and subscribed by mail to your blog. Very interested in hearing more about becoming a Beach Body coach. I have considered doing the same.
Blessings,
Sandy

Your husband is so sweet! I think that my Dad is probably my biggest fan. He has come to some of my races and jumped in at the end to run the last 100 yards. He is fun!
For safety, I have a shoe road ID! I would get a wristband to wear all the time as well!

I follow you! I would say to be aware of your surroundings and be familiar with the areas you are in while running, biking, etc! I hope I win, BUT I don't have a FB account :(
Oh and I linked up this week! THANKS FOR THE REMINDER :)

oh and to answer the question...my husband is my #1 support to. My family is my reason that pushes me to that finish line each and every time!! Awesome letter idea, I might have to do that for my hubby when we do the half together!

Safety tip: cut back on your music when in high traffic area - you need to be able to hear what's going on!

That note from you husband is really sweat. When you have so much going on plus throwing training in there, having the support of your family is so very important.

My safety tip is to always let someone know where you are going and when you should be back. I also like to keep my phone on me for long runs. You never know when you might need someone to pick you up.

My safety tip...when running in dark conditions...wear as much white as possible, a relective vest and DO NOT turn on your ipod until the sun comes out.

I don't need to be entered in the giveaway ... just wanted to stop by and say hello and tell you how sweet I thought it was for Chad to leave you "an envelope" for you to open before the race.
