Second Wind

Great run tonight. I remember before I hurt my knee that there came a time when I could suddenly run easily - without it feeling like I was surely not going to make it. When I got that second wind and could just keep going. I have finally hit that again. I'm so happy about it. Good thing too considering this Saturday's endurance run is 10 miles. Oh, boy. I'm actually looking forward to it - to see if I can do it and to see how it feels. Pretty sure that makes me completely insane.

I am going to distribute brochures to five different businesses that will allow the brochures to lay out for people to take. That will earn $25 toward fund-raising. I wonder if I can get 10 businesses to do it, if I will earn $50, etc. I'll have to ask. I already have the okay from one business, so only four to go. I still don't know how much I earned from working the concession at the air show last month. I'm getting a little impatient about that. I'm going to be speaking at the Rotary Club meeting this Monday night. Public speaking is definitely no my forte but I'm determined to do this. We'll see where we are after that. And I started the follow-up letters. It was so late when I wrote it that I was fairly bleary-eyed. I'm going to review it this weekend and then mail them out.

And I got the picture of Anna that will be on my race day shirt - she's such a cutie. Unfortunately, it's on my computer at work so I can't access it but I'll e-mail it home tomorrow and then post it on here Saturday when I report back about the endurance run.

That's all for now. I'll let you know how it goes on Saturday. We start at 6 a.m. in an attempt to beat the heat. Which means I'll have to eat no later than 5 a.m. Ouch. ; )
