The Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to finding the cure for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, as well as improving the quality of life for children and adults affected by these chronic intestinal diseases. CCFA is at the forefront of medical research in IBD, playing a role in every major scientific breakthrough, from generating data that leads to new therapies to the discovery of the first gene for Crohn's disease. The Foundation also sponsors a wide range of educational programs for patients and health-care professionals, and provides supportive services to help people affected by IBD. As CCFA is not a government-supported agency, these programs are supported solely by contributions from members and donors.

Vacay!!

At this very moment, I'm packing to leave for a weekend cruise to the Bahamas with some fabulous women...It's Norisse's bachelorette party, and I could not be more excited...or exhausted. I have been up most of the night trying to get "stuff" done prior to my departure, and today is the first day I'm going to skip training. Today was supposed to be an easy cross training day, and I thought I'd have enough time to squeeze it in this morning before leaving, but unfortunately even staying up all night did not allow me enough time. I'd like to postpone my departure for a few minutes in order to fit it in, but I'm sure the ship will not wait for me...I'm going to attempt my usual long run on Sunday while on the cruise, we'll see how that goes...Be back on schedule Monday!
