As many of you already know, Robin is running in the Cowtown Marathon in downtown Fort Worth this weekend.  During the course of her training she injured her left leg and has been working through this injury for the past five weeks.  There was a moment where it looked like she wouldn’t be able to run in the marathon.  The good news is, that after consulting with many doctors and a sports trainer, she is back on track.  However, she was not fully able to prepare for this marathon and has decided to run the half marathon…still 13.1 miles which is farther than I can think.  When she started training for the marathon she also wanted it to have a purpose and decided to raise money to help build a water well in a place where people do not have access to clean water.  She chose Charity Water as the organization to work with and has been raising funds towards this goal.  We would like to invite you to participate in the building of this well by giving you the opportunity to donate at http://www.mycharitywater.org/robinweertsmarathon.  To date, Robin has raised close to $1,000 and we are hoping to break the $1,000 barrier before the marathon on Sunday!  Here is a video I put together for Robin as she took on this challenge.  Hope you enjoy!
