The last mile...

Or really the last 12 miles. We are now 8 days from the Chicago Marathon. Like the over 45,000 runners (gosh that's a big number), today was the last longer training run. The plan my training partner and I are on had us running an "easy" 12. Lately I feel that none of the training runs have been "easy". Next week is the last taper week. The plan call for a couple of "easy" 5's, and a very easy 3 on Friday. Beyond that, I'm looking to move into the 7 to 8 hours of sleep range. I recently shifted from the 3-4 to 6-7ish.

8 more days and we'll have the payoff. Keep me, but more importantly keep our Team World Vision cause, in your prayers. The 1200+ World Vision runners will be the largest single charity runners group this year. Running with a single purpose. To help those that are in need of help the most. To help those that cannot help themselves. To help heal, educate, an inspire them to become sufficient. To bring hope, to places were hope is often a luxury.

Its never to late. If you feel moved to help our cause, your support is very much appreciated. May you be Blessed even for considering supporting our cause.



Peace... Ted
