And We Are Off .....
Hi Friends,
I am off to Eugene tomorrow. Just thought I would make a few notes before I re-check all my gear and head from Medford to Eugene early Saturday morning.
Thank you to all the great friends and family that helped reach the goal of $1500.00 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. We actually made it past $1600.00 and that is unbelievable. It sure has been a few months of fun and hard work to finally get to Eugene. Well actually I will be there tomorrow.....
I made some new friends and started running with a great group of people that I think will help me be a better runner and a better person to boot.
I ran in a couple fun races in Reno. First chasing leprechaun downtown and then running in the Downtown Reno River Run Half Marathon. Both times I was running with the great folks at Reno Running and Fitness and chatting and laughing the whole way. Thanks gang!
Brenda has really been kind to put up with all my running talk. She is pretty sure that I have a problem but just can't pin it down yet. I am sure that I would be lost without her there to keep me from going off the deep end. Thank you sweetie!
So the countdown is over and I am sure something new will take it's place after Sunday. I would love to do another marathon in December, but I will have to see how that looks in a week or two.
Oh and I almost forgot. I will be meeting some coolio folks that I have been chatting with on Facebook. And it is always great to meet new people, especially when you have something in common.
More in the next couple days...
