Hi Everyone! I wanted to send…
Hi Everyone!

I wanted to send an email en masse thanking all of you for your support during this journey to the LA Marathon. I am excited about the amount of money we raised for the DAV and the race could not have gone better.

The weather was perfect. It was a cool 50°F at the start and it remained cool and partly cloudy for the entire race. I didn’t even need my sunglasses. I decided fairly early on to hang with the 4:30 Clif Bar Pace Team and that proved to be the best decision of the day. I didn’t have to look at my watch or think about my time at all… Just run!

It was an especially moving mile when we ran through the VA of West LA. This was about mile 20. I could not believe at that point in the race I felt as strong as I did. There were loads of cheers as we ran through streets lined with supporters and American flags. I know my Dad was with me from the very beginning until that final stretch along Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica.

This was my tenth 26.2 miler but hands down my strongest marathon to date. I firmly believe it was because of your support and encouragement. We raised $2,425 for the DAV and I plan on keeping the fundraiser going until we hit the $2,620 mark. I know we will get there. Thanks again for your generous donations and next time I hope you'll be running with me!

Kind Regards,

Hi Christa!

I don't think I had sent you a thank you yet. You got me to the $1k mark and that is wonderful. I am getting excited about the marathon. I can't believe it is only a week away. I fear I may cry the entire race. ;) Definitely at the finish line.

We are getting ourselves organized travel-wise. Our car may be full but things could change. One of our peeps wants to try to run it bandit but I think he'll get caught. Do you have a ride at this point?

Let me know and talk soon. Thanks again for the support!

Kind Regards,

Stuff About Me:

Music + Travel + Fitness + Love + Creativity + Giving

There are some of the things I cherish. Right now, I'm reinventing myself into the person I need to be.  My life may not be the one I wanted it to be, but I'm a work in progress. I'm getting closer to the person I'm meant to be by giving back.
