Just have fun!!!!

Thank you to everyone who has wished me well.  I would like to say a special thank you to my friend Christie today for reminding me to have fun!

During the rigors of training I somehow seem to lose sight of the fact that this is supposed to be fun.  Don't get me wrong, it is a lot of work, but when you do it right I truly believe it can be both.

I know this sounds kind of corny but I feel like I am running to be an example to those who think 'I'll never be able to do that'. It is a good feeling. I posted a saying on my blog the other day, What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail? I wish I could convince everyone to try something beyond their wildest dreams, you might just surprise yourself with what you are capable of. Boston, after all, was beyond my wildest dreams when I started all this!

No matter what happens, my #1 goal is to a) have fun. Anything else will just be icing on the cake.

I would also like to take a moment to say thank you for the support of my fundraising efforts for Humphreys Diabetes Center.  They provide a great service and appreciate the donations.  I am about half way to my goal, please join me in the supporting HDC.  Donation information can be found here

Make it a great day!
