Marathon is Soon!


The Toronto Waterfront Marathon is on Sunday! Wow that is very close! There seems to be one question everyone asks you when you are about to run a marathon: are you ready? I think I'm ready, I feel good about it but this being my first marathon who knows what could happen. I haven't run much more than a half marathon but I think I can do it. It is going to hurt, and I know I will want to quit sometime during the race but I know that that will never happen. I'm shooting for under four hours, I did half a marathon in about 1:50 so I think I should be able to get just under four, but who knows! Thanks to everyone that sponsored me for the race I raised a lot of money and I am getting closer and closer to fund raising the whole trip!

I REALLY WANT TO THANK Nikki's parents (Cathy and Jim) who are paying for my whole flight!! Once I figure out when I need to leave and return (I'm working on it!). The flight is a huge expense, and I am VERY grateful that they decided to help me out!
