WHO IS PAXTEN?
Paxten Reede Pearson was the daughter of family friends, Blake and Libby. She was diagnosed with Leukemia at the age of 9 months and lost her battle on January 29, 2012 (just before her 2nd birthday). Her parents started a journal shortly after she was diagnosed. Their posts were raw, honest, and gave very detailed descriptions on Paxten's treatments, struggles, and recovery. Their journal went viral and touched many hearts throughout the midwest. In February, I wanted to do something for the family that not only showed my support for them, but showed support for current, past, and future patients. In March, I decided to sign-up with The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and pledged to raise $10,000 in Paxten's memory.

Insanity Day 4
After 4 days of Insanity and adding my Kinect Fitness Evolve game, I feel amazing! I'm a bit sore in my shoulders, hip flexers, and calves, but at least my body is responding well to the exercise :). I went through the Nutritional Guide and found some great recipes. I'm going to start the food guide probably next week, but I want to do a cleanse first. Jillian Michaels has a great healthy recipe for a 30 day cleanse and you can eat with it too! EXCITED!
