Where'd 2015 go?!
I skipped a year! 2015 was a marathon-free year but I was proud to finish my THIRD PostOak Challenge Doubler, and had a blast at the Cincinnati Flying Pig half-marathon. My 2015 running calendar got a little messed up when I broke my foot by dropping a water ski on it this summer. It didn't stop me from finishing out the weekend at the cabin, but it did put an end to my fall marathon plans. I was able to run the Tulsa Run and the Route 66 half in 2015 before taking the remainder of the year off to finish healing.

So now, I'm healed and have started training for my spring marathons. I am excited to wear my Marathon Maniacs race shirt for the first time since earning it back in 2014. Becoming part of this crazy running club is partly to blame for my newest running goal...
This spring I will be training to run Tulsa's Golden Driller marathon and the OKC Memorial Marathon on April 23 and 24. That's right, I'll run 26.2 miles on Saturday, drive 100 miles, sleep, and then do it again on Sunday. I'm not going to lie, I am super nervous. I have some great friends and family who have supported and encouraged me to keep working toward my big running goals. Without them, I'd probably still be sitting on the fence about running back to back marathons.
Once again, I am honored to raise money for the Gayle Ross Memorial Campership Fund at Camp Lutherhoma while working to achieve my marathon-ing goals. If you have given before, the process will be the same:
Checks can be made out to Camp Lutherhoma ("Campership/run" in the memo line) and mailed to: Camp Lutherhoma PO Box 1672, Tahlequah, OK 74465
or online payments via PayPal can be made at: http://lutherhoma.com/Support/donationtypes.php
If you do donate, please send me an email letting me know so that I can make sure you get a receipt from camp and a thank you from me!
THANK YOU!
