I'm a stud(ette)!

Total training miles: 313.32

Longest long run: 16.4

Total fundraised: $2710

Hope your jaw didn't hit the floor too hard after reading my stats for this week - but you have to admit - I am a stud(ette)! I mean, most people take a car to go 16 miles right? Heck, most people take a car to go any distance. Not me - I'm a runner now! (Now is probably not a good time to admit that I drive my car four blocks away to the store, huh?) Not only that, but I've convinced almost 50 people to part with their hard earned cash to help cure cancer!

OK. So not only did I RUN 16 miles this week, but that brings my total training miles to over 300! I love stats. When I am old, I am going to be one of those ridiculous people obsesses over their running log. Oh wait, I already do that! In fact, I am so obsessive that I have my training log saved in google docs so I can access it anywhere and anytime I might need it.

Fundraising is going well, less than $300 to go to meet my ambitious goal - and a surprise donation this week from the finite monkey (Oh, and if any donors out there are getting ansy for their thank you card - they are coming - but not until after the marathon so I can give you a full report!)

Any regrets? I mean, this is a big commitment, right? Training to run a marathon isn't like telling someone you'll meet them for lunch. The difficulty level far surpasses that of choosing between french fries or a side salad. I don't regret spending the time and energy fundraising or training, but I do have one small regret - that I didn't do this sooner!

Go team!

(That's it for my ultra-peppy post - watch out Amber - I'll have your job yet!)
