Hello bloggers! All I have to say is WOW. This is the run I have been waiting for. The run where I can feel my body getting in shape The run where I don't think about every step I am taking, trying to push myself through the run, but the run where I think about fundraising, and what running the actual marathon feels like. It was a solid run. Hey, not bad for an asthmatic with a bruised tailbone and a pulled groin muscle. I guess my body is used to performing with pain. I guess all those years dancing on a bum hip actually came in handy. Haha.
So bloggers, this leaves me to one conclusion: I CAN run this marathon in October. Not only can I run a marathon in October, I can run the Marine Corps Marathon. Yes, I can. Sure, I am not running super long distances yet, but my body is getting into shape. I can get used to running 26.2 miles. I can do this. But not without your help. I am going to email the Make a Wish Foundation and see if they will sponsor me. This late in the game, the only way to get a race number is to run for a charity and have them sponsor you. So this means fundraising. I have to raise a minimum of $750. Not too bad. It will be donated to a child in the D.C. to help one of their wishes come true. I will post more information about it tomorrow. I will also post a donation page. Any donation is welcome. Remember, I will not be getting any money out of this. It will all go straight to Make a Wish foundation. Well bloggers, can you help my wish to put that 26.2 sticker on my car come true?
Happy Running! Peace!
