Recovery

0 miles - Today is a day of rest/recovery, before the 12 mile excursion that I will be partaking in tomorrow morning. Honestly with the forecast of subzero temps once again, I'm not sure how long we'll be out there but we'll see. My Mom and a couple of her friends are coming into town tonight. They like wine. A lot. SO jealous! I guess I'll be the DD for the night. *sigh* So be it! My mom & dad also got me a cool little Runner's calendar to track my progress and stuff totaling all miles. So for 2010 I've run 95 miles as of yesterday. Yippee!
And I'm still plodding away at not only the running, but the fundraising to help with a cure. Thank you so much for all that have donated to the cause. I'm almost 50% to my goal! Today I want to honor a friend of mine's (Jen OC) sister. Her name is Terri O'Connell. Jen told me that "she's sitting at chemo #10 and the last CT & PET scan showed that things are working." Three cheers for Terri. Hip hip hooray. hip hip hooray. hip hip hooray! Everyone please throw up a prayer for Terri and her family. I know I'm gonna and I'm gonna make sure we run in honor of her recovery June 6th as well!

  1. WOW! That is lot of miles Abbs!! Great job! Also I have that same running calendar! :) And good luck on the DD thing. My new trick is to order a fun mocktail so I still feel like I am drinking. Maybe you can do like a juice mixed with tonic in a martini glass or something. It's totally a mind thing.
