Eeek... its almost time

Tomorrow I am running in the Great Prostate Cancer Challenge.  Its my second ever race - a 5k.  Its tomorrow morning at 9 am Central Time.  I am nervous and excited.  I am also happy that I've managed to raise $360 towards this cause.  Remember my dad died from it.  I know he will be there in spirit to cheer me on.  I am so honored to do this in memory of him.  If you still want to sponsor me there is still time:  http://www.active.com/donate/gpcctwincities10/fatlittlelegs

I am nervous... because my last 5k I had tons of people there supporting me... running with me.  Tomorrow... it's just me.  Just me... and my darling husband cheering me on of course! 

Daddy... this is for you.  I bet never in your wildest dreams would you envision me... your youngest... running a race.  Crazy, isn't it?  I'll be wearing the blue shirt.  Keep your eye out for me.  I know I don't look much like I did when I last saw you, but being your daughter I'm sure you'll still recognize me.  I've lost a little bit of weight.  I know I'll be looking for you, and something tells me you'll have the best seat in the house!
