Number, Numbers and more numbers

Number, Numbers and more numbers

5K Monday

I just cannot believe how good I felt on Saturday during my 18 miles. I felt like I was flying… I think the training is paying off. I hope I feel this way on December 8^th. 

I have always been a stats person. I like to know my performance in numbers (the first thing I look at after my runs is the time by miles, the average speed and any other statistical information I can get from my watch. I remember when I played basketball I always look forward to see the number of points, assistance, free throws, three point shots… I made in the game. Numbers are just something that I understand very well. Now I want to use this to learn more about domestic violence…

Do you know?

• One in every four women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime.
• An estimated 1.3 million women are victims of physical assault by an intimate partner each year.
• 85% of domestic violence victims are women.
• Historically, females have been most often victimized by someone they knew.
• Females who are 20 - 24 years of age are at the greatest risk of nonfatal intimate partner violence.
• Most cases of domestic violence are never reported to the police.

Help me to build new dreams and give hope to those who have lost it.
