We were looking at supporting Operation Homefront for vets and their families. They have a very reasonable fundraising minimum for a slot, but I don't know that you get all of the 'stuff' (coaches, hotels, singlets) that TNT provides. Can't wait to hear how the meeting goes! <br /><br />As for comments, I tend to comment back on their blog - unless it's a widespread question, or something thy can use a bunch of info, then it gets incorporated into my next blog post.RunningLaurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08718905572574315398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307657659580771651.post-65570362162528901152009-04-16T11:43:00.000-04:002009-04-16T11:43:00.000-04:00I respond to comments by leaving a comment on that...I respond to comments by leaving a comment on that person's most recent blog post.<br /><br />Ugh, there is nothing like a windy bridge run when you are already irritated to just really piss you off!<br /><br />I agree that finding a charity or cause that means something to you personally might be more fulfilling and motivating than one that, although a great cause, you don't have any personal experience with.<br /><br />I am so mad, it looks like we aren't going to be able to do MCM so I guess we're sticking with Valley of Fire in November.

Action-packed post, girl :)<br /><br />Lotsa running & activity - I'm feeling like a slacker.<br /><br />Re: questions left in comments - unless I know for sure that the commenter tracks my comments (in which case I leave the answer in my comments), I head over to their blog to answer as a comment. If they have an email addy though, I'll email directly. If it's a question mentioned a few times, then I'll answer in a post.<br /><br />Confused yet?joyRuNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03033973041471006513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307657659580771651.post-17726485291148469232009-04-15T19:01:00.000-04:002009-04-15T19:01:00.000-04:00that would be awesome to hear some of the cool spo...that would be awesome to hear some of the cool spots in Chapel Hill!!

Kudos for getting through it and not saying eff it and heading to Dairy Queen or something (I contemplated that on my last one, luckily I didn't have my debit card on me :)Jerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07020972795844203824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307657659580771651.post-83339848086915574492009-04-15T13:25:00.001-04:002009-04-15T13:25:00.001-04:00I hate shorts-tugging runs!

I'm glad you had some yummy sweet potatoes to make up for it-- I've actually tried the purple ones baked and I liked them, except I have a hard time eating something that doesn't look like I think it's supposed to.tfhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10735303292996192352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307657659580771651.post-81302149489413861612009-04-15T13:25:00.000-04:002009-04-15T13:25:00.000-04:00Wow, that was quite a post!

It's a WONDERFUL organization, and definitely reputable, but after training for two races through them, I decided that next time I want to integrate fundraising into racing again, I want to do it with an organization to which I feel a more personal connection, probably something that's more of a social issue than a medical issue (for me personally).<br /><br />Working with an organization dealing with wounded vets sounds like a fantastic idea.Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004677338036439657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307657659580771651.post-79241528864874977042009-04-15T12:56:00.000-04:002009-04-15T12:56:00.000-04:00Just figured out how I set up my comments to go to...Just figured out how I set up my comments to go to my email. Go to settings, then comments, then comment notification email and enter your email. That way all of the comments left on your post will be emailed to you and then you can just hit reply and answer the person.

Gazellesoncrack has a cool thing that emails you her reply comments.<br /><br />I think it's grat that you're thinking of doing a charity race...I'm too scared of fundraising to do one.<br /><br />Mmmmmm sweet pototos! That's what I had for dinner last night too. Though I was lazy and nuked them in the microwave for a bit before tossing them in the oven to save on cooking time. I was STARVING!<br /><br />P.S. Hill workouts are harder for me than the track!Alisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04468073781328699944noreply@blogger.com
