Thank you everyone for all of your 'LOVES', prayers, and positive thoughts that were sent my way. Thank you so much to Linda Tran for the impromptu photo shoot at 7am and her lovely doggy Winston for paying extra attention to my shoes! Even though I entered the contest a few days late and there were a few technical difficulties, the Nike Gods received everyone's good intentions and they delivered! I was chosen, with seven other lovely ladies, to enjoy a 4 day lavish trip in San Francisco to really enjoy our marathon this year. We will all meet and sleep in a house starting Thursday Oct. 13- Saturday Oct. 15 to end all off with the run of our lives on Sunday October 16th! Some of us will run the Nike Half Marathon (13.1 miles) and some of us will run the full (26.2 miles). I will be one of the full marathoners out on the course so continue the positive thoughts and prayers, I'll need them! I am proud to be chosen as one of the eight, not only because it's a marathon, not only because it's Nike, but mainly because it's a race I believe in. I believe in the cause this event helps. For those who don't know, The Nike Women's Marathon beneficiary is the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, and I strongly believe there should be a mass destruction of all cancers leukemia and lymphoma included.
Homework is calling my name, so I've got to go but once again, thank you everyone who voted for me! I really appreciate it!
I RUN TO BE... stronger than I was yesterday.
