Halfway to Race Day!!

So we are about halfway to race day, and I am getting excited!!!! I am currently up to running about three miles three times during the week, and every Saturday we increase our mileage...today we were supposed to do 6 miles, but I started getting a blister on my foot, so I only went about three miles. I will try again tomorrow with better socks.... Last weekend we did a group yard sale to raise money, and I got about $120. Thank you to all those who donated items for me to sell!!!
I completed my first 10k three weeks ago. It is 6.2 miles and I completed it in an hour and 20 minutes. I never thought I would be able to complete six miles!!!! I want to thank all of you who have donated to my cause, and I hope that you will pass it on to any others that you think will donate. I still need to raise about $3700, so every dollar counts.
Also, I am planning on asking businesses to donate items for a raffle, so if any of you have anything that can be raffled off here in Florida, please let me know. Or, if any of you have any ideas for fundraisers, I could certainly use the help.
