Updates & Big Thanks

Wow, it's crazy how time gets away from me -- didn't mean to stay away for a week! I've been reading the wonderful and encouraging comments you guys left on my last post. Thanks SO much -- I'm actually getting super excited about the half and can't wait to celebrate with everyone at our TEAM dinner the night before. And I have a ton of blog reading to catch up on -- I promise I'll squeeze it in between Biggest Loser and The Bachelor ...

I've been working out at the gym at work most days, sticking to the bike and light weights. I did test my ankle twice last week, going a mile on the treadmill each time. My ankle felt great *knock on wood* but didn't want to push it too hard too fast. I'll be re-joining my TEAM runs starting Saturday, with low mileage of course. I heard they kicked some major butt at Cowtown last weekend -- wish I could have been there!

I'm about to go out and take advantage of 65 degrees and sunshine, but wanted to once again say a big "THANK YOU" to all of my donors. Can you believe I only have $290 to go to reach my $1,800 goal? And I couldn't have done it without you! And a HUGE thanks to all of my moral supporters as well -- you guys keep my head glued on. So thank you all!

P.S. Any 50/50 fans out there? Be on the lookout tomorrow ... ;-)

P.S.S. For every $5 donated between now and this Saturday (March 7), you'll be entered into a drawing for a chance to win over $650 worth of giftcards, including Nordstrom, Target, Best Buy, iTunes, Anthropologie, Outback Steakhouse, massages and more!! One person will win it all -- cha ching! My TEAM Coach will draw the winner on Saturday. Good luck! :-)

you know, i have been stalking you(r blog) since last week or whenever when you said were you almost done with the book... the work website blocker even randomly allowed me to view blogs for a few days (usually blocked for "personal/networking") but nooo. you wait until this week when blogs have been blocked again.

haha. no hard feelings of course. i'll just have to try my hardest. :) glad your ankle is feeling ok and you are starting to feel content with your decision. you definitely shouldn't feel bad, though i can understand why you might be hard on yourself. good luck getting those last few fundraiser $$$s!

Very happy to read the ankle is holding on!! Keep up with the cardio on the bike =)

I know I'm repeating myself but I love the music on your blog. I think I spend 4h on your blogs over the week-end listening to your playlist LOL

Glad to hear the ankle is feeling good. Slowly build up to prevent injury. Congrats on being almost at your goal.

Yay! Glad that it is treating you better. Slow and steady wins the race. An extra week on the front end will save you a month of pain!
