First Donation-$200!

Tayna Whale you rock!!! This means so much! You got the ball rolling, and I love you for it!

Going to Get Me Some Austin Area Runners:)

When failure is not an option, I will begin to recruit some team members down here...I figure 4 more team members (at least) can help get to the $10,000 by 2-14-10, and what a lovely Valentine's Day that would be!
Random: "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" Listen to this song everyday!!! And heard it on a friends ringtone...thought that was cool because they had no idea I jam to this song everyday. It is an 80's goody!

Everywhere I ran, the Sun followed!

Yesterday was brutal, I'll be honest. 53 min. on the trail, and even the shadiest of spots had the sun blazing through. Granted it was 4pm, but I was stroller free, and taking avdvantage of it! Speaking of that...I used to leave my car unlocked and hide my keys somewhere inside, because I didn't want to carry them with me on my jog (prefer not to use the jogging belt either), when a friend of mine said,
"Why don't you just put the keys in the stroller when you jog"? Seriously? How did that not ever cross my mind!
Not that my car is on the top 5 to be broken into either:)
Heading to Ft. Hood to catch up with an Army buddy. Labor Day, and run rest day too!

Town Lake Is Boomin'

I am sure there are cities, but personally, I have never lived anywhere with so many runners on a downtown trail. Now that Austin is alive again (weather under 100 degrees), it's very inspirational to run around Town Lake.
38 min. steady pace.

Everyone has their own goal, and pace...you never know who's training for a race just by looking. As I am the epitome of not your average runner:)

Going to a Good old Texas BBQ this evening, but heading to Jason's Deli for their salad bar right now. I could eat there everyday!:)

Alicia Shay-What a great woman:)

So, I didn't shower and go out...was on the phone with Alicia. We talked forever, and agree, this is going to an awesome cause. We want to our servicemen and women to know they will not be forgotten!

Ryan Shay Memorial Fund

I will have a P.O. Box set up tomorrow for check/money order donations...working on the on-line donation option. Feel like I am at the point of no return!
