Sorry I've been slacking...

I haven't written a blog entry in a long time. Not too much new, running and working. And trying to get the last $1,000. So please mention it to anyone you know. Almost everyone I know has been effected by cancer, it is a great cause and a great charity. Only 16 days until my marathon!!!!

It's been a while...

I just got back from running 7 miles, that wasn't too bad at all. Tomorrow I am set to do 18 miles, eck!!!! We will see how that goes. Today, I had to meet my Aunt & Amy at 5:20, when we were about to start I found $5 so that is a good start to the day, I asked Amy if it was hers and she said, "No, but I could be Brittany's" so we ran and when we got back Amy gave it to me and told me to keep it and donate it myself. So that was nice of her or lucky of me, I guess. I did all my runs in August. I didn't start off too smoothly in September because the adapter I hook on to my watch which plugs into the power cord has not been working so my watch was dead, so that threw my off for a few days. I hope the LONG run tomorrow goes well. I got my Aunt to take my watch to her house so she could charge it for me. So I haven't been uploading my times and such because that uses up the battery so I am interested to see how I have been doing on some previous runs. On Sunday I am running the LIVESTRONG CHALLENGE, I am running the 10K, I wish there was a longer run, but it's a great cause. Ok well I have a few thank you cards to write!

My run...

was slower then it should be!!! But, I blame someone and Costco's Chocolate Chip Cookies for my slowness today. So my 4 mile run, I ran over 8 minute miles, BOOO to that! 8:17 was my average pace per mile. I have to run 16 tomorrow or Friday or maybe even as late as Saturday. I am waiting for my Aunt to email me to see if she can do most of it with me. I know it will be hard but I will be glad when it's in the books. ; ) Fundraising has slowed down quite a bit, which I expected but I am still shooting for $5,000. How 'bout them LBSer's???

12, done!

It feels good to have my 12 miler done by 6:30 am. I woke up at 4:30 and was running by 4:40. Ran 5.5 mi. and met my Aunt and Amy and finished up with them. I had an 8:45/mi pace which is pretty good. 1:45:41 was my time for the 12 miles.

All is good...

Running is going really well, I've completed all my workouts so far in August. Even my 14 miler on Friday! Besides that fact that I just ran 7 miles and I am eating ice cream and it is 7AM things are going good with running and fundraising. I have over $3,000, I think the last $2,000 will be hard to get though. Thanks everyone for everything!

Long run...COMPLETED!!!!

Thank God! I am so thankful that my long run for the week is done and I don't have to stress about it. And it's the fastest I have run 10 miles ever, so that is good, well a plus! I started running with my Aunt again which I am sure will go well. All I have to run tomorrow is 2 miles. So this week is going good, I am glad I got a good start here in August. Hopefully the rest of the day will go well it's only 7. So today 10 miles/1:24:43/8:26 pace. : )
