pasta dinner and running-gear discounts! you're def gonna have to take advantage of those.
Good for you!! Looks like they take good care of their runners. :D
You're going to New York!
Yay you! Looks like they give you lots of fun stuff. Good luck with the fundraising. I just read on another blog I that some runners had a garage sale and the proceeds went to their cause.
Congrats!! Sounds like you will be running in style. Enjoy every 26.2 moment of New York!
YAY! Congrats! Sounds like a great organization to be running for!! :)
Congrats!! It is wonderful that you can support a cause that you feel strongly about while getting to run your goal race.
Good luck with the training and fund raising.
Yay! Your welcome for the donation btw :) I would have given more but with my friend being here I overspent a teensy little bit...My question might be answered in your upcoming posts (which I'm in the process of reading), but what are you going to do for fundraising? :)
