Oh my goodness - where to begin? We leave in 3 days for San Francisco!! We are just 18 kinds of excited & ready for it to be here!! The most recent weather forecast showed a high of 59 on Sunday!! 59 - wow! That made us re-think our clothing for Sunday. We'll dress in layers for sure, but it brings a slight dilemma. We've trained in basically the same clothes we plan on wearing on race day so that your body knows who it will react (fun stuff like sweating, chaffing, breathable). Anywho - it was a great excuse to break down & buy this yummy Nike Dri-fit long sleeve shirt (with an iPod pocket on the sleeve)!
Thank you, parting gifts, etc: Mom & I worked like mad over the weekend to finish our October update (you'll get it any day). We've also been working on a fun thank you gift for EACH of our donors (over 200 of you!), by the time we leave, we'll have it ALMOST ready!!
Sinus infection - this lovely thing struck Friday night & kept me in a snotty fog (sorry to share) all weekend. My awesome doctor (Dr. Stephen Lindsey) was kind enough to see me yesterday at 5pm. Okay, so it was actually 6:30pm when he finally walked in to my room. Good thing I had my new iPod Classic (THANKS MOM) - I had downloaded episodes of Ugly Betty & Scrubs. So, I watched some tele, took about 3 naps & then saw the doc. He knows how important this weekend is!! However, he could only promise that by Friday, I'll be 75% and race day 95%. Seriously? I need to be 110%!!! But, hey, I'll take 95% & LOTS OF PRAYERS!!!
T-Mobile has got to love mom & I. We kind of talk to each other quite a bit. Especially right now, we keep thinking of last minute things we want to do for TEAM OKLAHOMA, or our guests, things we want to add to our update. It's never-ending, but WONDERFUL!!!
For those of you who really know Mom & I, you know we're pretty close (and close to our Honey). Working on this truly life changing event has brought us even closer! What could be better?!! Of course, I'm sure when this is over, Tom will be glad to have her focus on him just a wee bit more!!
Until tomorrow...
Welcome to the Team WillDu Blogspot!!
We are SO excited to be participating the in the 2007 Nike Women's Marathon benefitting the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society! The marathon is Sunday, October 21st in San Francisco. We're commited to walking the 26.2 mile course & to raising $26,200!! That's $1000 per mile!
The training & fundraising is off to a great start! We are just so honored & exciting to do this in honor of our friend Sara Swanner Northwood's nephew, Stephen Swanner, Jr. In June of 2004, he was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). After successful chemotherapy, he went into remission this February. He will get to play football in the fall - his SENIOR YEAR!!
