I've been behind in my blogging. I'll be better once the semester is over. I promise. I still owe you pictures from the Disney Princess Half Marathon. If you're friends with me on Facebook, you can view them there for now.

I sent out one batch of thank you cards, but still have a stash to finish writing and addressing.

I'm roadtripping to Vegas this weekend with some friends (and to visit Precious). It's a 12-mile weekend. Let's see if I can find the time to run while I'm there or if I'll have to get the miles in on Monday. :)

Disney Princess Half-Marathon

Well folks, I went to Florida for a few days and just got back Tuesday evening. I'm proud to say that I finished the Disney Princess Half-Marathon, my first race ever. I didn't really treat it like a race though. I just wanted to finish and not be swept from the course from being too slow. I finished in 3 hours, 32 minutes, and 17 seconds. But, I think I could easily take 20 minutes off of that time for the bathroom stops and the many times I stopped to get pictures with Disney characters (they were all along the course - soooo much fun).

I'll have to update with some pictures later :)They gave us a disposable camera, so that's what I carried with me during the race. I have to get my film developed.

another update

Wow! What a week! I mailed in my first batch of checks this morning only to receive another $150 worth of donations today! Every time I think I have all of my thank you cards written, I find myself needing to write more. But that's a good thing! I don't mind!

I'm getting a little nervous about the Disney Princess Half-Marathon this weekend. I don't feel prepared. But I bought a crown to wear, at least for the picture at the finish line and a skirt to wear over my running pants.

I'll be sure to post pictures after this weekend!
