Work stress equals...

The Job Which Must Not Be Named is in transition, it seems, and it's ugly. I'm fairly freaking out about not having that income as of, well, like tomorrow. Just to put it in perspective, that's 40% of our monthly income. Don't get me wrong, we'll be ok, but it's a huge blow.

So what do I do about it? Well, yesterday I decided to train for a half marathon. Did you know they do one at Disney World in January? They do!! I found a 26 week training schedule that seems totally doable, so I'm going to start planning to do the half and if I think I can push myself further, do a full marathon.

I'm so not a runner, but I need to get into shape and I don't work out without a goal, so it seems like a good solution. Plus, I plan to run for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Since baby Ethan died of leukemia, it just seems right.

So if you're interested, here's the schedule I plan to follow (except I'm going to job instead of walk this week, I know I can walk 20 min without a problem):

1	Walk 20 min.	Rest	Walk 20 min.	Walk 20 min.	Rest	Walk 20 min.	Rest	80 min.
2	Run/Walk 20 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 20 min.	Run/Walk 20 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 20 min.	Rest	80 min.
3	Run/Walk 25 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 25 min.	Run/Walk 25 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 25 min.	Rest	100 min.
4	Run/Walk 30 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 30 min.	Run/Walk 30 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 30 min.	Rest	120 min.
5	Run/Walk 35 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 35 min.	Run/Walk 35 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 35 min.	Rest	140 min.
6	Run/Walk 35 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 35 min.	Run/Walk 35 min.	Rest	Run/Walk 35 min.	Rest	140 min.

10	Run 25 min.	Rest	Run 20 min.	Run 25 min.	Rest	Run 30 min.	Rest	100 min.
11	3	Rest	4	3	Rest	5	Rest	15

18	4	Rest	6	4	Rest	14	Rest	28

25	3	Rest	5	3	Rest	8	Rest	19
26	3	Rest	3	Walk 2	Rest	26.2	Rest	34.2

So please pray for me (seriously, this seems like a huge undertaking for me)!
