Hello all! I'm so sorry I have not been updating my blog! I actually have been really busy and did not think many people were reading it, but since I have not updated it, I keep getting asked to update it! Sorry!
Since the walkathon, money has been trickling in every now and then from participants, family, friends, and people who have heard about what I am doing! I am sooo thankful for all of the support and all of the new friends I have made through all of this! It has been a life-changing goal to reach for. We are just shy of $6500 dollars, which is awesome!!! I can not believe I have even made it that far! I set my goal at $10,000 and did not think I would even come close, even though I did not reach my goal (yet), I am very pleased with the amount of money that has been raised. I will continue to work with this organization even after all of this, and hold the walkathon once a year. So be ready for next spring!
My training has slowed down, my race is just 6 days away!!! Crazy how fast time goes! I did my longest run a couple of weeks ago, on the day of the River Bank Run. It was very nice. I am VERY nervous for the marathon though! I feel like I have not trained as well this time. But I do remember that I felt this way the last time too, so you never know what will happen! Either way, I will be happy to say that I have ran 2 marathons in my life:)
So next Sunday, around 8am, say a little prayer for me! I will be just starting my run! I will definitely update my blog after that and let everyone know how I do. Thanks again for all your support and I hope to see you all soon!

- Hello! This is my running blog. I have started this blog because I am trying to raise $10,000 for a non-profit organization called Of One Heart. You can read my first post to hear more about this organization. This blog will just tell the story of my training and also of my fundraising. Thanks for reading!
