As you know, since last Thanksgiving I’ve picked up a nasty habit called exercise. Running, to be more specific. Since finding out that a Wood baby will soon be gracing our home, I’ve decided to try to extend my life as much as I can. Thus, running.
On Mother’s Day weekend (May 11th, to be specific), I am going to be running a 5k that benefits the Northlake Crisis Pregnancy Center here in Covington. Northlake offers free counseling and care for pregnant mothers who do not have the resources (relational or financial) to care for their child well. Many of them are considering abortions, but don’t know the other options that are available to them. I have been personally impressed with how Northlake has worked to help thousands of women and children in our community. As a result, I wanted to support them by running in this race.
How does a fat boy running garner support for a non-profit? Good question! Each runner is invited to raise support for the Crisis Pregnancy Center. If you’d like to sponsor me in this run, all you have to do is click this link. You can read more and make any donations (via PayPal) at that site. I’d really appreciate your support in this process of restoring health to myself and to the families on the Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain. I do hope you’ll consider giving generously.
