13.1 miles to November.

So there is a 1/2 marathon race in November called the Rock and Roll Marathon. Darrell and I are signed up to run/walk with the Guide Dogs of Texas team. The team has been made to help fundraise for GDTx, so we are going to be participating to help out and to get back in shape! We get together as a group every Sunday and we have homework that our trainer gives us at the beginning of every month. We started training on Sunday and will continue to train up until the marathon on November 14th. So if you would like to help us raise funds for GDTx you can go online and fill out a form to sponsor Darrell and/or Me. Here is the link you can follow to get to the donation site if you would like to help out. Click Me! If you would like to sponsor either of us you can use our first names and last initial, which would be Natalie F. and Darrell G.

Oh and I forgot to tell everyone - Bob went up a size in his puppy jacket so I wanted to post a before and after picture. The pictures aren't that great because I don't take my camera out with me on walks but I did get a new phone that has a pretty good camera on it so there should be more pics of him in his jacket ;)

Picture of Bob sitting on some concrete looking up at me in his puppy coat - it stops about half way down his back and says Guide Dog in Training on it. It's blue and the letters are in white.


Picture of Bob in his medium puppy coat, he is sitting on carpet and looking up a the camera, his puppy coat looks the same as the smaller one but bigger lol. It takes up about three fourths of his back and looks really baggy.

Impressive about the 1/2 marathon!! Bob looks great in his new jacket. Turn around twice, and he'll outgrow that one too I bet...puppy days go fast!
