...until
the third annual Phoenix Undy 5000. It's crazy to me how close it is, and
yet how far away it seems. I know it's getting here quickly - I'm running
around like a chicken with my head cut off. So much to do - between the
run-of-show, getting vendors on board and set up, coordinating volunteers, and
making sure everything is ready (I have a great team, and I'm confident all
will go well) is overwhelming. And, since I'm training to run the event
(again, running in my world is more like a jog/walk combination in other
people's view) I'm running 2.5-3 miles three times each week, which takes
time.
Whew.
Just wanted to remind you all to please consider coming to the event or donating. I know most folks are in the same boat we are in - each penny has already been spent before it's in your bank account, and finding money for something like this is difficult at best. I hope that you can find $5 to donate. That makes all the difference.
And, if you are in Phoenix on October 30th, please plan to join us for the event. We will have Sean McLaughlin from KPHO (their evening news anchor) as our guest emcee, along with appearances by Mrs. Arizona and Miss Arizona, the Phoenix Suns gorilla, tons of kids' activities, and other events that will make this a wonderful morning.
Maybe I'm a little biased, but such is life. :-)
So, what will YOU be wearing on October 30th?
