Barely 5 days left!

This is the cute little jersey the Herzog's ordered me. They ordered the jersey for all the girls I've been training with so we each have our last names on the back. I really love the rainbow, because well, I love rainbows!!

I mainly wanted to say that I can't believe I will be running the Windermere 1/2 marathon this coming Saturday, May 15! I started training on a Monday, February 15 to be exact. So it will have been 3 months to the day come Saturday. I did have a set back last week which landed me in physical therapy. The GOOD news is that I now have a brilliant PT who has helped my knee tremendously! I have had 3 pain free runs since she's worked on my knee, THANK THE LORD! I was a mental/physical mess last week wondering If I'd even be able to run. I see her 2 more times before the race so hopefully my iliotibial band (IT Band) will quit wigging out and let me finish the race the way I've been hoping for. Wish me luck, or better yet, say some prayers!

Kelli you're going to do Awesome! Don't even think about it, lol. I know it's easier said than done, but you have come all this way...you are ready for this! No need to be nervous!

And btw I Love your background!! Everytime I go to change mine, I can't see the borders (on the computer I use at work).

and btw, how are we getting there? I was just checking my email and the windermere website about taking the bus route and I found nothing. I'm not sure that I have a bus pass. (if that's what everyone's doing) I'm sure I don't need a pass, but do you know where to catch the bus. And I love how your whole family is planning on being at the finish line! And apparently possible Birthday cake/dinner/get-together for Joe & Jeff's Birthday?
