San Francisco...Here I come!

The Nike Women's Half Marathon is around the corner! Only a little over two weeks left! I am so excited. I am feeling really strong and have made a lot of progress becoming a better runner. Who would have thought that I used to HATE running! Now it is almost meditating for me. I have enjoyed going down to the boardwalk in Newport and running along the beach with the waves crashing next to me. I pass by Blackie's and see all the longboard surfers that always gather there and then on to Newport El with the kids swinging from the bars on their playground in the sand. I go on www.mapmyrun.com and see how many miles I run and make new routes. Running 5 miles seems like nothing now!

Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout my journey with Team in Training, both by donating and also emotionally. Running has been good therapy for me with everything going on!!! I will report back after my event with pictures and a recap of how things go! Wish me luck and I will be thinking of everyone as I cross the finish line on October 22nd!
