Pay it Forward

I just received a fun gift in the mail from my awesome friend from college, Leah Marie. I signed up to do Pay it Forward, and she really thought long and hard and found something perfect for me.

I want to do the same thing for 3 more people.

Here are the rules: The exchange focuses on doing an act of kindness without expecting anything in return other than that the recipient will, in their turn, pass the kindness along and pay it forward in their own way. This is how it works… I am going to do some act of service, or something fun, inspiring or uplifting for the first 3 blog owners who post a comment on this entry (please leave your email address if I don’t already have it). In turn you will then post about this on your blog, link to me, then send something to the first three people who sign up to play along through your blog. If those who respond to you are local, you can do something in person for them, or you can send something you made, bought, were given or found. No biggie--just do something that will make the person smile. And remember that kindness doesn’t have to involve money; there are untold ways to help others every single day, everywhere you go - just look around!

Okay, first 3 people to comment. Ready, go!!

And, I will be updating soon, I promise!!

I'm already involved in a couple Pay it Forwards, so count me out of that, but I love the shirt! It is perfect for you, and hopefully it will give you the added boost you need as you finish up your training! Good luck!

Kelly -

I should probably figure out a way to just email you.... :)

I am now battling plantar faciitis - Any advice the week before SLC??? I'm kind of worried. I have new shoes and will strap them on, but I am nervous to run. I don't want to hurt worse and really screw my foot up before next Saturday. I am stretching it like crazy, taking lots of ibuprofen, wearing other running shoes all the time, massaging it with a baseball at night. Is there any hope??? THANKS!!!

Alright, so far it is Kari and Angi that I will be sending fun surprises to. Is there anyone else? This is going to be a blast! I need a distraction right now!
