Life has been all about house hunting, the tax man, paying off debt, learning to take blood pressures, working and running and the day has finally come...almost.
Sunday morning at 6:00am is the big day. I am thinking it will take me around 3 hours to run 13.1 miles. This is slow by running standards, but I don't care. I am running a half marathon...and if I add it to the half marathon I ran 2 years ago, I have run a whole marathon. I have been able to raise close to $200 already for Love Bags and I am ecstatic about that, because I felt almost bad for asking for the money from anyone because times are so tight these days. I am never surprised or overwhelmed by the generosity of my family, friends, and coworkers...THANK YOU! I could not have done this without you.
I have learned that one should never hold on too tightly to any one thing just in case they miss something better to come along for them to grab a hold onto. Lots of words in the last sentence, a little deep in nature, but still true. I will be back on Monday with a race update. I would love to beat my 2007 time, because that only proves I am getting BETTER with age!
