motivate my 1st marathon

[ishy]

First I would put this under training, but I know I don't look at that till atleast december. I am attempting my first marathon trying to raise some much needed funds for a camp for families that have lost children called Parker's Place. It is the only grief camp in the west for families, and they literally saved my own family. The first year we went my wife still wasn't getting out bed as the depression and pain were overwelming. So with three other little girls still in a new world they weren't quite sure of without thier oldest brother, I made everyone go. It was amazing, and gave us friends support and healing that we wouldn't find any other way.
The race is october 18th, but I know I am late getting this out (imagine a hunter procrastinating in the fall, I'm sure I'm the only one that's ever done it) so the link will stay open till the end of October. 100% of money raised is going directly to Parkers Place. Just click on the link and scroll down to the donate button near the bottom of the page. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Well I did it. Not quite what I was hoping for time wise, but running a first with a marathon with 1500 feet of elevation change immediately following archery season (didn't run at all in September) probably not the smartest way to start.

a big congrats to you! I cant imagine such an elevation change.....

Bryan, you had a goal & you achieved it, sweet! That's what life is about, put goals before you that are achievable & you'll have a lot of satisfaction once achieved! Well done!
