My dad has been in the hospital for the past few days and I have decided that I want to cross off a marathon on my bucket list. So since I missed the Nike Women's marathon this year...I think I'll do it next year along with the LA marathon.
First things first...13.1 miles
So today we ran a 10k in Griffith Park...one of my favorite places :D
But instead of running straight through I ran it at a 7/1 interval...7 mins of running and 1 min of walking. I felt pretty good until I got a cramp & slowed my pace down. When I got back to our water stop I had a packet of salt with a few shots of water & was back on the trail.
My goal for next week is to contact a family that has been affected by Lukemia or Lymphoma who will inspire me to run before I start running those double digit miles. I'm interested in their story. I will keep you posted and write about them in a post.
I also wanted to start hitting that fundraising hard this week so keep a lookout on what interesting things I can pull out of my bag of tricks!
Check out the hydration belt i got today...Its my power pack!
:D
ps- Im going to buy a domain name today so I can link this blog/fundraising page/twitter/facebook all in one... I'm taking my fundraising to the web and see what I can catch!
