Awww, How Cute...

Here's a shot I took a few weekends ago after a run. My camera was on a tripod and used my Sigma lens. Man, I love this lens, but I really need to use a tripod in shady or indirect light, in order to get the razor sharp imanges like the one below:

A few race pics

Here are a few pics from yesterday:


Yep, it's me (note the 162 in my race bib, not exactly 216, but....)


Coming around the bend, almost at the finish line.


Here was one of my cheering squads (aka co-workers)


I'll have more pics, once my minion submit...(more pictures that is ;-)

I DID IT!

THANK YOU EVERYONE!! I've raised over $1,800 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society!!!

I finished my first 1/2 marathon in 02:08:07

I placed 1065 of 1839 for the entire race and I placed 314 of 417 for my division (male <40).

314, that's freaking Pi!!! How perfect!

Let the fun begin...

Good morning all,

It's 5:05 am and today is the big day where I will run 13.1 miles. It will be my very 1st 1/2 marathon. I'm so excited and super happy that it's not raining cats & dogs!

Last night was the pasta dinner for me and my fellow Team In Training comrades. It was lots of fun and the food was really good! For those of you who know me personally, I was able to eat pretty much everything they offered because there was less than 3 ingredients per food item =)

I am so grateful and excited that I chose Team In Training as the program to participate in for my first 1/2 marathon. They take care of everything for you and offer so much inspiration that it's almost impossible not to be super motivated to finish.

I'd also like to thank all of my family and friends who supported me during my training. Without you, my training and fund raising would be have been a lot harder than it was, so THANK YOU!!! Because of you, I was able to raise $1,829 to help cure blood cancers!!!

Well I'm off to Providence to go run....for more info please visit here.
