Auctions!

Periodically I will post an auction item to bid on for one week.

I will post a starting bid price. If you or someone you know is interested post a comment with your bid. At the end of the week the highest bidder will be contacted by me and posted on the updates. The highest bidder will make their donation and receive the item.

RUN UGLY!



UPDATES FROM ADRYON:



7/1/08 - Hey everyone! I am ready for another week of running! Last week was a strange week because of the fires and air quality. All of my trainings were indoors and mostly alone. Team in Training does not have indoor facilities, so it was off to the gym for me! I can say that I appreciate my teammates so much more now! Just seeing others running alongside me gives me the energy to go another mile! Go TEAM!!!!



The auction was a little difficult last week, as I didn't realize I can't get comments here on this website! So my awesome friend Christine made me a website. By going to the website you can leave me comments all the time and bid on auction items!



And the winner of last week's auction is Chris Fisher. Thank you!



I met one of our honorees, Maddie, last Saturday! She is 12 and such an amazing young woman. As I ran my long 6 miles in the 90+ heat she held my keys and helped to man the drink and snack station. I was able to let her and her cousins sit in my Mini Cooper, turn it on and move from neutral to first! I had fun and was just so amazed at how Maddie is just like any other 12 year old, trying to convince me to let her drive! Maddie's journey has inspired me to continue on my journey!



This Saturday I have 8 miles to run. Please help cheer me on! Visit my website and help me with my fundraising mission!



June, 2008 First Coached Run...

I started the morning nervous! Once the run started I was fine... so fine that I made a few new friends and went one mile farther than I was planning on running!

Yes, I was soooo busy talking (I know when do I not talk?) that as we approaced the mile four turn around point I ran past it! So we agreed to run another mile, MILE 5, and end the first coached run! You heard me correct, I RAN 5 MILES! A first for me!

I am a little sore this morning and was totally exhausted last night. But I am so proud of myself already, the aches and soreness are worth it!



Saturday marked another charity event for me. I have cut my hair and donated it to locks of love! I will post a picture of my new do and running gear soon!
