David Forman, the Herbal Pharmacist, is joining Team Vitamin Angels, running the LA Marathon and raising money to support Vitamin Angels! Check out his blog below about what inspires him to run 26.2 miles on behalf of Vitamin Angels!  

Before I go any further, let me first say that I truly HATE running. Hate is not a good word and should never really be used, but in my case there is no other appropriate word to describe my feelings about running. Many friends and acquaintances’ have shared that “you will learn to love” running, but I just don’t see myself getting the “loving feeling” with the task at hand. In April of 2011 I ran a half-marathon to support someone else’s lifelong dream of completing a half marathon. We ran side by side the entire time (All of the race photographs of us individually had the other person in the frame due to our running the race together.) The goal in that race for me was to help someone achieve their lifelong dream. During the race, we only spoke a few words to each other. We never stopped running until we crossed the finish line.
