Throwback Thursday: The Final Ten Minutes of 2014’s Sweatin’ For St. Jude [Video]

I am not going to lie.  When I watched this video to prepare this story, I actually cried.  I had forgotten how brutal this was.  In our first ever Sweatin' for St. Jude event, Jaclyn knocked down an astounding 32.4 miles.  I logged 50 miles . . . in one day on a treadmill inside the Owensboro Family YMCA.  As we get ready to the same thing again on Monday, the 23rd, we've decided to take a look back at last year's big finale.  And, yes.  There was blood, lots of sweat and lots of tears.

To say that day was agonizing is an understatement.  Jaclyn and I both lost toenails.  We had horrific blisters that took months to heal and we both had stress fractures in our feet.  But, you know what?  We're doing it again because the kids of St. Jude go through much worse.  And, if we can push ourselves to exhaustion and raise money for them in the process we're in.

And , this year, YOU can be in too!  And relax.  LOL!  We won't make you walk/run 50 miles with us.  But you can hop on a treadmill and join us.  New for 2015, we're "renting" out treadmills at the YMCA for just $25 for half an hour.  You'll be able to join us for Sweatin' for St. Jude and all the proceeds will benefit the hospital in Memphis.

If you'd like to reserve your half hour, CLICK HERE!  We'll be in touch to confirm a time!  And we'll see YOU Monday, February 23rd at the Owensboro Family YMCA as we are Sweatin' for St. Jude.

Oh, and be sure to tell your friends and family they can tune into WBKR from 7am to 7pm for all the play-by-play action and they can stream the event live on WBKR's YouTube channel.
