The race is approaching fast and everytime I think about it I get knots in my stomach! I cant believe its just around corner. Its time to start cutting back the miles and taking it easy. These last two weeks before the race will be used to rest my body and re-energize all my muscles so that hopefully they will be at their peak performance come June 6th! I am seriously getting nervous just typing this blog and thinking about it...26.2 miles! :S

During the race, anyone who is interested can "track" my run via text messages. I signed up for something called CompetitorWireless. As I pass certain mile points in the race it will read the timing chip on my shoe and send a text message out saying where I am at on the course, what my time is, and so on. If you are interested let me know and I will help you sign up for it.

I only have one more team practice and its going to be lots of fun! Stay tuned for next weeks blog to find out more!

Congrats to Joanie Lipp from Hingham, MT. She was the winner of the quilt raffle. This fundraiser was a success and raised over $400 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society!
