I love this weather!

Hello again!  It has been a long time again since I have written, sorry!  Things are going great and I'm getting very ready for the Run/Walkathon on April 23!  It's going to be so fun:)   This past Saturday was an awesome run!  I met up with the Riverbank training group at the zoo for a "prediction" run.  This is when every one predicts how long it will take to run 4 miles, and we all write it down.  We are not allowed to wear watches or anything that will help us keep our pace.  There are volunteers timing us and the person who is closest to their prediction time wins.  This week they won a free entry into a race in Belmont.  Well, this winter I have been running extremely slow, so I predicted 40min.  I thought that was being optimistic.  Last year I would have done it in 38, but this year I seem to be running a lot slower.  So I was nervous I wouldn't even make it in the 40 min predicted.  Well, after the four mile prediction run there was a 9 mile course mapped out for runners to get their miles in.  So I found a new friend:)  and we ran the 9 miles together.  It was great!  The weather was perfect and we had a good pace going.  When we were done with that, we got to see our times for the four mile run.  My time ended up being 37:41!  Way better than I thought!  That just made my day!  I had to get 19 miles in, so I ran a few more miles and then I was done.  I ended up doing 19.6 miles in roughly 3 hours. 

The rest of the weekend we did some yard work and then went to a Whitecap's game on Sunday.  What a beautiful weekend!  I can't wait until summer when this is normal weather:) 

Well, I don't have much to say right now, but I will keep you updated on the fundraising and the Run/Walkathon!  Only 12 more days!  Thanks for reading!
