The Seattle Marathon is 8 weeks away! Whew! I'm up to 18 miles this weekend.

Thank you to everyone for your donations. If you haven't donated, go to Team Survivor Northwest's website and go to the Seattle Marathon/Half Marathon page to donate to my efforts.

It's turning into quite the family event! Mom, Dad, Cat and Emmy will be in town for Thanksgiving. Emily will run the marathon with me (or in front of me). And my mom has decided to do the half marathon too! It's her first longer race and she's been building up her mileage. We'll all enjoy our well deserved pizza and beer that afternoon.
