Pace Groups

Hello!

I want to first take a moment to thank the very generous people who have already donated to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in support of my marathon. Dan Dour of DB Incorporated, a high quality and reliable printer and friend as well as the company I work for, Edison Pharmaceuticals have made contributions to my fundraising and offered inspiring words of encouragement. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you.

The team run last night was short and sweet. We ran two miles, timed so that we can begin splitting into pace groups. (Hey, I can do that 12 more times!) I think it's time for a new pair of shoes because I had some aches and pains, but nothing a little recovery feast at Willow Street didn't help. I went to my first "Hang with the Gang," something I'll probably be mentioning a lot throughout this adventure. The team is full of amazing people, each with his or her own story and I am fascinated to hear each and every one.

So far, the benefits of training are adding up, but i must say that the greatest one of all is the sound sleep that I get at the end of the night. So sound, in fact, that I don't notice my sneak of a dog hop into my bed in the middle of the night. Way to take advantage of the situation, Montag!

Until next time!
