Well...this past weekend I emailed the American Cancer Society person who is working on my website--just to check in on how things are going! I am starting to get nervous about being able to raise the money I would like to raise before July 22nd! I know its still a far ways off--but I really wanted to get started sooner than later! Ultimately I have TWO races to raise money for (with an ultimate goal of 2,000.00+) so I really wanted to get a kick start with fundraising! Anywho--she emailed me back saying there has been some big changes around their office and that there WILL in fact be a team racing the Marathon in October!! So that is TOTALLY exciting!! She said she is just waiting on word from the designer's/other people that the website is a go!! I am just excited to see it and can't wait to get things rolling!! :)
However, on another exciting note! A good friend of mine (who also just happens to be the 2nd in command at the daycare with the boys!!) is also a great photographer! AND I asked her if she would do some pro-bono (aka free) shots of me in my gear for some fundraising items (and my blog!!) And, wouldnt you know SHE SAID YES!! So look for those to be coming soon!! :)
On a training note--I haven't done any since last Sunday. Yes--almost a week and a half without running :( This, makes me miserable for one thing. And I HATE that--BUT, I had the 2 wisdom teeth pulled last Monday morning (so--not this past but a week ago Monday) and I have been dealing with some crazy, intense, miserable, pain and complications. I had a dry socket last week---and then over the weekend it got crazy worse!! And it seemed as if there was something STILL in my socket. WELL--went back Monday to find out that there was still a pretty big chunk of tooth still attached to the bone :( So--they had to numb me up and pull that part. SO I was back at Day 1 for recovery on Monday. Yesterday was miserable--but today I woke up feeling a bit better! I am hoping by the end of the week that I be on the up and up! My dad is coming to town and we are planning a run for Friday!! Which I am REALLY looking forward too! Although, it might just kick my tooshy--as it will have been almost 2 weeks since my last run!! And he has been running several times a week--and his speed is really picking up! Oh well I guess! It will be nice to just get out and go!! :)
Until next time! :)
