Crushed that Fundraising Goal!

As of this morning, with the help of so many friends, family, co-workers and a couple of dogs that get an allowance, I crushed my $750 fundraising goal for the June Marathon! Lola’s face really sums up our excitement.

And while I’ve reached $895 of my $750 goal, I won’t stop fundraising until cancer stops being a jerk. If you’d like to support, you can do so HERE! And a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who has donated this year and/or every year before!

 

It’s Getting Real

I am officially registered for Grandma’s Marathon (yay)!

And SO CLOSE to hitting my $750 fundraising goal (to contribute click on the link Here)

Now it’s time to start building my base mileage and (ugh) strength train. On the bright side, my main squeeze and I are able to go on leisurely runs still to watch the sunrise

Stay tuned for more views and we build up to a real base (read: barely running double digits per week right now) and for some (no doubt) hilarious accounts of me trying to lift weights.

New City, New Race, Still Tackling Cancer

It’s official! After a full year of running for fun with my main squeeze Lola, I am ready to tackle another marathon! In 2019, I will be taking on Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, MN (don’t worry, not in the winter)! I’m only semi looking forward to training through the winter/early spring (NOT) BUT I am super excited to run a new marathon on what rumor has it, is a downhill course!

While I am running through a new city, I am still raising funds for cancer research. Cancer has been a jerk lately and as long as it continues to affect the people I love, I will continue to fight in any way that I can. So if you’d like to support, you can make a donation HERE. 

And since I haven’t officially started training and don’t have any pics yet, here is a pic from Saturday night’s American Cancer Society event that was filled with puppies (because who doesn’t like puppies?!)
