About Me

Faith Mayme Pfeifer was born on December 27, 2010 with Spina Bifida. I have been truly inspired and touched by the Pfeifer family and Faith's journey. It is my goal here to run 1,000 miles by Faith's birthday while raising $1,000 for Faith and her family. If you can or want to make a donation, please click on the Give button on the side of the page (you do NOT have to give $50...that number is just defaulted in there). Once you get to the site you get to type in the amount you would like to donate. No donation is too small and I am grateful for all you do in helping me take on this challenge. I will begin this challenge on May 2, 2011 and my completion date will be December 27, 2011.

Fun Stuff

Hey everyone..sorry I have missed a few days of blogging. I was able to head back home to spend Father's day with my dad and family. I did not do any running while I was there :S But I did 2 miles that morning before I left, I got 4 in yesterday, and 6 in today.

Tuesday

I got in 8 miles today and it felt wonderful. Keeping Faith's beautiful face in my mind as I run is great motivation!

Good Day

I hope everyone has had a great day. I was able to get 6 miles in today. Not as many as I would have liked but that's okay.

Sunday Funday

I hope everyone had a great Sunday! I was able to get in seven miles today. I'm telling you the farther I get in this thing, the more addicting the running/working out is getting.

Have a Great Week.

Feeling Good

I was able to get seven miles in yesterday total (not all in one setting) and then another two this morning. Back to the gym I go this evening and hoping to get a few more in.

Faith's aunt Alison has volunteered to donate some miles. So exciting.

I'm Back

I am sorry for not keeping up with the blogging like I should be, but I promise I am back starting now. I have kept up the running just haven't found the time to blog it or put it on the mile tracker.

I have had a lot of interest in people donating miles. I have done a lot of thinking and contemplating on this because I felt that since I had set the goal of running 1,000 miles, it would be like I was cheating if I let others run them for me, but because there is such a strong interest, I say let's do it. I will still run my 1,000 but if you would like to run and donate miles you are more than welcome to do that and they will be tracked on this site as well.

The only way for your miles to show up on the tracker is if they go through me...so if you want to run and donate, if you could e-mail your name and also your number of miles to me at runningforfaith@hotmail.com I will make sure they get added in. I want to be able to share with the other followers who is adding miles with us.

Our first mile donors are MIC AND FAITH. I was so excited to get the e-mail with pictures from their 1.5 mile run. :)
