After everything that has happened I wasn't sure when I was going to get to make this post. I'm sad that I missed three weeks of training/tapering but I'm glad I can still make my goal races (and, hopefully, my goals for those races).
My father-in-law is recovering well from his surgery, my husband got his car back from the accident, and I am finally kicking the cold I've been fighting for weeks. Now I'm just waiting for the return of my motivation and energy. Thanks to a gorgeous day today we couldn't pass up a walk on the trail with the kids and dogs. Right around 2 miles plus a stop to play at the park. Afterwards Shane and I took turns going for a run. I managed a nice, easy 5k in 29:40 so there's still a chance I can set a PR at the Rock n Roll DC Marathon next weekend.
As it stands I'm out of training time so I'm just going to have to hope all the hard work I put in leading up to these last few weeks was enough. I'm also afraid my fundraising wasn't quite up to par. I've raised $1,305 of my $1,500 goal. If anyone is willing to help me raise the rest you can donate here. I really appreciate the generous donations and support I've received over the last three months! I hope I've made a huge difference for someone!
Lastly, if you're local don't forget to sign up for my race: The Boston Trail Half Marathon and 5k. My mother-in-law, husband, kids, and some friends will be doing the 5k. I'll be doing the half. And my wonderfully talented friend, Jesse, will be doing the photography again. There will be an after party at our house for anyone who comes!
See you in April! ;)
