Weddings and Friend Raising

We went to my cousin's wedding this weekend in RI. It could NOT have been a nicer day, a nicer place, better food or better company! The couple is very happy, they radiate when they are together! The kids and John had fun as well. I got to see cousins that I have not seen in 20+ years and meet their beautiful babies (you know I love babies!). I learned about blueberries and MAY-o-NAISE---LOL. We stayed at the Providence Biltmore-where in the wee hours we ran down 15 flights of stairs with 4 frightened children as the fire alarm bellowed. It was awesome! We went to the Mystic Aquarium-which was very fun! All in all, WONDERFUL weekend. Thanks guys!

So, just a quick running update: I ran the PDR with Team in Training (half marathon in Phila) in June. It was not my day, I did 10 minute miles-wanted to do 9. I have not been fundraising, but have been serving as a mentor for the team-friend raising. It is funa nI have gotten to meet some great people, yet again. Several of my team mates and I ran in honor of my friend Ed, who is doing well-which is what really matters.

The girls and I have been meeting to do some long runs on the w/e but I have to admit-I hate to run in the humidity. I will do the philly half in about a month-which means I have to get my big old butt out of bed and put in some miles if I am going to break 10-thank goodness it is getting colder.

I will be a mentor again for TNT so if you want to donate, let me know!
