Marathon Training...Go!

I just booked our tickets for Seattle! Yea! I am about to start training for the Seattle Rock N Roll Marathon with Team in Training. I sent out an email to some of you last night. But if you didn't get it or want to see what I am doing...my website is http://pages.teamintraining.org/ntx/rnrseatl09/lwardumt3m.
I am going to run the marathon in Seattle and then me, my parents, and Justin are going north to visit Victoria and Vancouver! I would truly appreciate any support you can offer...$5,000 is alot of money to raise! Also, last time I trained for a marathon, the training was as difficult as the race. So pray that I am diligent in my training and that the effort I put forth is reflected in my runs. Also, pray that my fundraising goes well. It is always scary at the beginning of a fundraising season. The amount seems overwhelming. But good news, I sent out my email last night and already have $325 in my account! Not a bad start.

In other news, in case you haven't heard, Kara, Aaron, Walker, and Sophie June are welcoming a new baby boy in June! Also, my sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Amanda and Josh are welcoming a new baby girl in May! That makes 2 nephews and 2 neices for Justin and me. I guess we will be ready for anything when we decide to have kids :)

Wow! Seattle, huh? Sounds cool (in more than one way). Good luck in the training.

Hey, where's the big horse behind you in the team in training photo? Somewhere in Dallas?
