| Hello friends! As you know, I have been involved for many years with Girls on the Run of Atlanta, a nonprofit that prepares girls in 3rd-8th grades for a lifetime of self-respect and healthy living.
This year I've registered to run the 2010 ING Atlanta Half-Marathon in March as part of Girls on the Run SoleMates, a team of men and women who train and raise money for GOTR Atlanta.
This will be my third ING Atlanta half-marathon, and I have yet to break 2 hours. Last year I got somewhat close: 2:02. But, 2 minutes is quite a lot to shave off my time, especially given the fact that a) I'm not a natural runner, b) I hate running in the cold, c) I'll be planning a wedding this winter, and d) I'll be starting a new job that could take up a lot of my spare time.
With your help, I hope to break 2 hours in this year's race. For every contribution I receive I will work that much harder on my hill and sprint training to prepare for those last brutal 3 miles of the race that are usually my downfall. For everyone who donates $20 toward my cause, I will virtually guarantee you an under-2-hour finish time (eek)!!
I know times are tough, so please know that any amount, even $1, is welcome and goes a long way toward helping out this incredible organization and the girls who need it so much. I hope you will help me to break 2 for GOTR!! |
