- Tomorrow is the day! June 11th. Marathon #4. Wow. For the amount of focus that I've been putting on this one date, it sure did sneak up on me! Ha!
- I checked Utah Valley's website this morning. My official number is 5210. I like it!
- After checking 4 stores, I was finally able to track down my Hammer Gel of choice- Montana Huckleberry. It's the only one I wanted even if it meant driving (okay, having the husband drive) a couple towns over to get it.
- I'm super excited that my husband (and all of our awesome Train4Autism volunteers) are going to be at the aid station at mile #21 tomorrow. It will be so great to see them right when I need that extra boost to finish.
- I totally forgot to mention that tomorrow's marathon actually qualifies me to be a Marathon Maniac. Cool, right? It will be really great to meet that personal goal but it seriously has been in the background of my BIG goal...
- ...which is to raise money for the amazing autism classroom my son attended a couple of years ago. I am right now $95 to my goal of $1500 and I couldn't be more thrilled! Thanks to everybody that donated. You rock!
- The virtual 5k has been an amazing success. I have been super excited to see all of the race times coming in and reading all of the recaps. (I promise you, I've read them all! Keep 'em comin'!) You guys sure had fun with it. I'll be posting more pics and recaps and prizes (!) this weekend. (By the way, it's not too late to enter. You have until midnight tonight to get your times into me and, of course, I'm being super flexible here. Just join us! I'd love to have you. Click HERE to see how.)
- I leave you with one of my personal favorite virtual 5k pics...

| My Mom did the 3.1 on her treadmill, 2000 miles away from here in West Virginia, wore the bib #509 (for her 5 kids, and 9 grandchildren) and walked in support of her first grandchild, my son, who was diagnosed with autism in 2005. This is a woman who was just in the hospital for nearly a month! Wow! Thanks, Mom! Now go take a nap! Haha. XOXO |

Good luck to everyone else racing this weekend! PR wishes to you all! ;)
