On Saturday, I took part in a local run to remember the victims of the Boston Marathon. I used this opportunity to raise money for The One Fund, which is the official fund established by Gov. Patrick Deval and Mayor Tom Menino. I am thrilled to announce that I was able to raise $515 for this cause. One of the local papers did a story on the event and I was interviewed (and I'm in the picture! That is Red Sox gear, by the way).
The run itself was good too. I did 7 miles--there was no set distance or time, but I wanted to stick with my running plan, so I did that. The second half went very well and, even better, I could finally breathe properly. So hopefully the flu is totally done. The run took place at Trout Creek, then we went on to Flatwoods. Unlike the last time I ran at Flatwoods, this time wasn't nearly as boring. Thank you very much Run Tampa for organizing this event.
There is a bit more news: I will not be participating in the Broad Street Run this year. Changes in my personal circumstances have made it difficult, so I have deferred to next year. The good news is, though, that I was able to defer, and I look forward to returning to Philly next year for it.
