We can run 10 miles!!

Melissa says that when thinking of goals you should visualize yourself already being able to accomplish them. So instead of "We're working on being able to run 10 miles...hopefully...someday" you say "We can run 10 miles." So there it is! We are training for the 2nd Annual Capital 10-miler - A Run for the Arts. It is organized by Open Stage of Harrisburg and once the run's website is up and running we will post a link to it.

The runners representing Gamut aka "Gamut Girl Squad" are:

• Gamut Executive Director, Melissa Nicholson
• Melissa's daughter, Carolina Nicholson
• Former Gamut core company member and current Director of Creative Programming at the Ned Smith Center (and my sister), Alexis Campbell
• And me! Gamut Managing Director, Brianna Dow

We are being trained by the wonderful Charles Hooker who has been running for a long time and has participated in a few marathons and other running events. (I really sound like I know what I'm talking about here, right?!? Sorry, Charles)

We are just starting off so there isn't much to report, but this blog will be updated by all four of us so you can keep track of our progress and maybe even give us some encouragement. It is bound to be a long, tough road, but it will most importantly be very rewarding, a great way for the four of us to bond and all for a great cause!

So stay tuned for the triumphs and woes of our journey to 10-miles!
