I am proud to say that I am now 16 days and over 60 miles into my goal; only 2 more weeks to go and then the 2010 Bolder Boulder. Today was the last day for on-time (read: cheaper) registration so I took a trip up to the Bolder Boulder store up in Boulder. In keeping with my habits from the past, I elected to treadmill qualify so that I could move up a couple of waves. Although I did run a qualifying 10 miler (Park to Park 10 miler) last September, that time was only good enough to get in the "D" wave. With so many runners, it's always nice getting an early wave to cut down on the number of people that I have to share the road with. Unfortunately, I didn't qualify quite as quickly as I would have liked (7:32 miles over 2 miles) and will be in the "CB" wave. However, I take some comfort in the fact that those splits are a little slower than they would have been on the road and that I am 3 waves up from where I would have been if I'd used my Park to Park qualifying time. And, to make things even better, I have a great new workout shirt...pictures to follow.
Fundraising update:
As this is also the end of my second week of fundraising, I also wanted to post an update on that. It is with some sadness that I report no donations yet. It is important to note, however, that I have heard from a handful of friends that have committed to donating so I fully believe that will change in the next few weeks or certainly following the Bolder Boulder. As always, thank you to all that are supporting me by donating or just following this blog.
