Back to Business!
I had an amazing trip, but did not get in one single run. I think that I walked 100 miles in the Senate and Congress builings. Next year I am going to wear my Nike Chip so I know how far I walked. I have been a little under the weather so I am hoping for a good run tomorrow.

Happy Birthday Mr. Presidents!
Thank you to my Running Chicks and Rooster for the great run yesterday! Every one's excitement is building as we get ready for Fargo! Running Chick Sarah, Hawk and I are off to Washington DC in about a week and I have to say that I am looking forward to a run on the National Mall. Hawk did this run two years ago and I thought he was a little crazy to be on a trip and going running, oh how the times have changed. Our hotel is just a block off the mall, so I am hoping to get 2 runs in while we are there.
Sarah, Hawk and I will be joining other volunteers from across the country that go to Washington DC to visit with their legislators to lobby for Tuberous Sclerosis Complex research funding. This is the third year we have done this and it is one of the most rewarding experiences that we do as volunteers. Visiting the lawmakers offices you quickly learn that they listen to what you have to say whether you call, email or visit.
Hope you all have a little presidential birthday cake today!

Please Stand by ...
I have been experiencing technical difficulties. My beloved eMac has been misbehavin',I thing that it was just sick of the crap I put it through the last month.
Well our first ever Taste of the Twin Cities Food and Wine event was a Huge Success! We raised $33,000! It was a truly lovely evening.
Now onto Fargo! I got two good runs in this week and we walked today. I am excited to get back to consistent training. I know my hind end can use it!
