Sunday Update and GTS

First of all I want to say Saturday I ran 17km, it's the furthest I've ever run!!! What an accomplishment! I went to the group training session with team in training. I thought I'd be super late because the subway wasn't working, but the ttc was super organized and the transfer from the subway to shuttle bus was seamless! The run was a great route through the belt line, a park and even the cemetery. The great part is having people to run with who haven't ever run 17km and completing it together. Let me tell you that was an amazing feeling! I rewarded myself with a freshly squeezed juice, it was awesome!

Now onto the part that terrifies me... the fundraising. I have committed to raising at least $3500 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. If I don't hit $3500 by end of day September 8th, then the remainder will be charged to my Visa. I'm not going to lie this is terrifying to me. My hours are being cut again at work, conveniently on September 12th so I don't have the extra money to pay off that visa bill, so I need to get serious and really buckle down and call the people who said they will sponsor me.

This brings me to my next challenge I need to raise $40 a day for the next 25 days to bring me up to my fundraising minimum. Please help me with this. If you were thinking of sponsoring but haven't yet please do! Please also share this with family, friends, co-workers, strangers on the street.. EVERYONE!!

Thanks as always for your support!
