Today is Friday the 13th...not sure if this is a good date to have as my start date...
Not only is this my first marathon, it is my first attempt at blogging. I appreciate any constructive criticism and comments and I hope you stick it out with me.
So, tomorrow is the first official "team" run and the first of many Saturday mornings I will drag myself out of bed and head to the cool shores of Lake Michigan and pound the pavement. I am not sure why but the excitement building up to tomorrow has my nerves flowing.
In preparation I am off to Fleet Feet Sports tonight to buy a new pair of running shoes. I will let you know how that turns out...
OK, Yes the marathon I am running is in Honolulu. Exotic location aside, I am running for a very serious cause, AIDS Foundation Chicago, with a fundraising goal of $4,000. Please be sure to visit my donation page and support me in my efforts. In addition to general donations I am working on some other fun fundraising ideas...if you have any please share them with me.
TGIF and have a great weekend!
This is my journey. My journey which started over in 2007 to commit to a healthy lifestyle, has brought me here...I am now on a journey to complete four marathons in 2010! I finished the Virgin London Marathon in April and the Rock n Roll San Diego Marathon in June. I will complete the ING New York City Marathon in November and the Honolulu Marathon in December and all as part of TEAM TO END AIDS (T2). I will help bring awareness too, and raise funds for AIDS Foundation Chicago.
