10/20- Marymoor Park in Redmond

Yesterday we went back to Marymoor park.  I like that trail because it is very straightforward and I don't worry about going the wrong way.   It was COLD!  It was 45 degrees when we started at 8am and only 49 degrees when we ended.  3 weeks ago we were still in the 70's.  That was fast.
I did 9 miles.  Not bad.  I think if I can do 9 miles then I can probably do 13.1.  It felt pretty good.  I was tired but I could still walk and after a few hours I almost felt like normal.  I am worried that next week is our longest run yet and I will be out of town.  It is 11 miles and the longest run we do before the race.  I'm going to Sacramento again to visit family.  I'll take my running clothes with me and will just need to force myself to take a couple of hours out of the day and walk. 
Near the 5 mile mark I went by this house that had all of this art work on their fence.  It was totally cool.  There was a large Starbucks picture on their garage.  Of course I had to photograph it.

My Fundraising is coming along nicely thanks to my very generous friends and family. Right now I'm over $700. Thank you to everyone who has donated!   I still have close to $1000 to go and not much time to get there.  The link to my fundraising page is on the left of this page.  Feel free to click over there and make a tax Deductible donation.  Tax season will be here before you know it!  This week I plan to send out a few e-mail and give the run a jump start.  5 weeks till the run!   

Fall has arrived!
