Sunday’s Run



Hi, Alison.



Oh,hi, Julian.Have you been training hard for Sunday's run for a cure for breast



cancer?



You bet! I have been running three times a week for over an hour each time.It's great.



I can't believe I've gotten to this point so quickly! Only six months ago I would run



for five minutes and almost collapse 2 in exhaustion 3.



I hear you. I decided 4 to run in this marathon because I needed a motivator to get



myself back into shape. During my pregnancy I gained a whopping eighty pounds



and I'm still trying to trim down. Also, I totally believe in the course.I know so many



poeple who have been touched by the disease.



Wow! Eighter pounds! That's nuts! Did you have triples?



No, just a big little boy. He was born 9 pounds, 5 ounces.Hi, Julian, what inspired



you to want to run this weekend?



Well, a bunch of my running buddies 5 thought it would be a great idea. We all



started running at the same time and when we heard one of the guys' mother was



diagnosed with cancer, we thought the marathon was something positive we could do



as a group. It should be a lot of fun , and I've been collecting lot of sponsors from the



school. So I'll hopefuly make tons of money for the cause.



That's so cool, Julian.Hey, I've got to dash. I'll see you finish line on Sunday.
