Tomorrow is the big day!

I hit my goal for Autism Speaks!! To run the marathon, I had to raise $1K...and surpassed my goal by over $100!! I really appreciate everyone who donated--it means a lot me and I'm quite certain to the organization. My niece has a disorder on the spectrum, so it really meant a lot for me to be able to raise money for them. In case anyone is interested, there is more info on my donation page that Autism Speaks set up for me: http://events.autismspeaks.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=1029858&supid=369166142 While this is not my first marathon, it is my first Big Sur International Marathon. I'm a bit nervous about it--I keep hearing about all the hills!--and there is a six hour time limit. My plan is to run with the 5:30 group, since they do the walk/run that I like to do. I feel as though I'm as ready as I can be...so here's to hoping I make the six hour time limit!! I have being doing training, but it has been more short/taper type runs and cycling for less than an hour. My husband came out to visit me this week, so I was glad that I was in taper mode and could get up early to knock out my workouts while he was still asleep. I will post a blog again tomorrow and let everyone know how the run went. :)
