Denver or Bust

Where to start....Please pray for Summer on Sunday, she is doing the Nike women's marathon in SF, her first. I figure with the time difference and their start time, I should be at mile 18 when she gets going. Mile 18 is for summer.
Its been a great morning, after running my six, I got an email with final instructions from the marathon people and there is going to be a changing tent at the end. Good news, in case I can't get a late check out. Firstgiving sent me a good luck email. Amanda's post gave me a boost. Sarah called and said she wants to see me before I leave, Mike's been so encouraging all week, and my grandpa called to wish me luck, which was really cute.
There are so many people to run for...Mom, Amanda, Rebecca, Sarah, Melinda, Lori, Kim, Team Boomer, Grandpa (Gene), all the people that gave money to cystic fibrosis (I won't name them all), Mike, Summer, Rocky, people in my home group, myself. I'm really looking forward to the trip, and I only wish I could pack each of you in my suit case so you could be there with me.
Our hotel is downtown, 2 blocks from the start and the whole street is closed down year round because its an outdoor mall. The only cars are shuttle buses that drop you off at one end and you shop your way back.
I think I'm most looking forward to the expo. I love looking through the packet of goodies and getting my shirt.
Don't know what time the Comstock ladies are leaving Austin on Sunday, but I'll be in at six pm if you want to go get dessert with me. I love you girls, you are all inspirations to me-LJ

Good luck!

Good luck in Denver, LearJet! I'm wearing my Team Boomer bracelet and will be praying for you this weeknd. EVERY mile of my 6 this Saturday will be for you! :) Love you!
