On 4/26, I'm running the Safe Passage 5k in Cumberland, Maine. Safe Passage is the organization that works with the kids that live at the dump in Guatemala City. Last year, the founder, a young woman named Hanley Denning, was killed in a car wreck down there. A documentary filmed before her death was nominated for an Oscar. Hanley graduated from our local high school, and a bunch of the kids have gone down to volunteer over the past year. So this race has a lot of meaning! It was my very first race ever last year. I ran it in 41:20. I'm hoping to get close to 30 this time!

Thanks Tim...and good luck to you....I'll look for you in OKC. DW and I will be at expo sometime Sat. afternoon...then arts fest, right across the street from expo. Call me. I'm taking this opportunity to post my goals for this, my first marathon. In order of priority: 1. fininsh injury free 2. finish strong 3. 4:30 just because it's a nice round number (as far as time goes) 4. 4:25 just because it's in the middle. 5 4:20 evryday on crack goal 6 negative split I didn't list have fun, enjoy the experience, see the beauty, all those other very important goals....for me, those are givens. No matter what the results are I will always meet those goals.
