Milestone moments

As I mentioned in my first post of 2o10, I'm celebrating a milestone birthday this year (let's face it, all birthdays, each time we celebrating being here, is a milestone but this one is special) and in honour of this milestone, I've prepared a list of things I want to do to mark it and remember it. I had originally thought of posting the list all at once but I would rather do it as plans firm up.

I'm really thrilled that my first two milestone moments are in motion!

Milestone moment #1:

V-Day in the Capital. For the second year in a row, Laura and I, and our friends, will be producing A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer to raise money and awareness for the women and girls of the DRC and for CARE Canada and Family Services Ottawa. The show is March 13th. Want more info? Check out www.hopeangercourage.com

Milestone moment #2:

10km Race, National Capital Race weekend. Prior to 2004 I used to run quite a bit. I ran in several 5km runs and completed a 10km. I was training for a half marathon when a soccer game went really wrong for me. Two knee re-constructions, three years of physio and ongoing chronic pain have limited my running but I miss it. Running is meditation in motion.

Somehow I've also managed to convince Laura to join me in this milestone moment so look for us on Saturday May 29th. We'll see you at the finish line!
