Today my program has a 3 mile run scheduled. Since I slept in a bit, I foolishly went for my jog right around 11:30 am. Note to self -- do the run either early or late, but not at one of the hottest, sunniest times of the day. The run itself actually went alright. I tried a pace that was faster than usual. I broke it up a little by running most of the 3 miles, meeting someone for lunch and then running the last bit back home.
It is also a big day for me to get my fundraising going. I'm hoping to have my letters ready to mail on Wednesday, so I have quite a bit of preparation to do before then. Luckily it's a holiday weekend and I can use today to get it done!
Hope everyone else is enjoying their Memorial Day weekend

Not too happy at Mile 24, but you can see my honored teammates listed on my arm: Jeff, Doug, and Marty - it was their inspiration that got me to Mile 26.2

Right before we all left to start the marathon. I'm in the front next to the woman (Julie) with the rubber chicken.
