First I would like to sincerely thank my friend Denise Veloria for her generous gift to my cause! Denise, I'm so honored that you are supporting my cause and I will continue training my as hard as I can! You're awesome!!
As promised here is a picture of me in race day gear! Thanks to my friends for taking these embarassing pictures of me! :)
Donation updates! It's humbling for me to say that so far my friends, family, and loved ones have helped me reach the 2/3 mark to my goal! I recently received a thank you letter from World Vision along with some snazzy new orange laces that, I think, I'll be using on race day (we'll see!) Here's a picture of what came in the mail! Thank you for all your continuing support! I'll keep working really hard!!
Now for my training plans: Last Sunday I ran about 7 miles in 40-45 degree weather with 30-40 mph gusts of winds along the lake front... Lesson learned! If the weather doesn't hold up this weekend, I'm planning on doing my usual gym workouts while adding more distance and time to my cardio workouts. If I'm able to run this weekend, I'll be doing a run to the lakefront, one 5K run at race pace (I was told that two back to back wasn't good for me right now), then run however long I can. I'll post the results if I do go!
Take care everyone! Remember... please spread the word and thank you all for your love! I'm so blessed to have your support!
God bless!
Marc :)
