WEEK 12 UPDATE

Good evening bloggers!
What a beautiful day today was huh? Couldn't ask for better weather.
This weekend was great! On Saturday it rained a little but kept us cool and then the sunshine came out :). I ran 14 miles, a personal record for me!! I've down a couple of 1/2 marathons and gone 13.1 miles but never 14. And surprisingly I wasn't that tired on Saturday evening or today. I had some friends over on Saturday and was afraid I would be sleeping through dinner but I felt fine. It's amazing how you slowly build up your endurance week after week. As the mileage increases I'm coming to grasp with the fact that the marathon is not that far away, just a little over a month from now! Next week is Country Music 1/2 Marathon, looking forward to road tripping with Jenna, Theresa, and Joey up to Nashville for the race. Hopefully, I'll come back with some pictures I can post. And only one real week of school left...this coming week at Tech is known as Dead Week. So looking forward to what I guess is my last summer as a student. After this summer all my summers will most likely be spent out in the working world (whatever that place is like). Erin went back to Emory this weekend to start with round 3 of her chemo. I think she is doing awesome at this race, she has so much more endurance then I every will. Please continue to pray for her speedy recovery and minimal side effects. And fundraising is going great...many many thanks to all of you awesome donors out there - I know I'll never be able to thank you enough, but I can try....so this won't be the last time you'll hear thank you! Two little words that mean so much! Have a beautiful week!
Love,
Denise
