I DID IT!!! I completed my TEN MILES in 3 hours and 10 minutes!!! I can honestly tell you that I almost didn't make it. Started out just fine but at about mile six I started to fade. So did my ipod! It gave out on me and I was out there - all alone - without my inspirational music and the sun started beating down on my head! What a bummer! My walking partner didn't show up today.
I did see some interesting sights at the Trinity University. A HUGE long line of people and kids waiting their turn to register for the kids summer program. There are only so many slots for the kids program and it's first come - first served. I know my friend Silvia was there - somewhere! They came prepared with lawn chairs, umbrellas, food, drinks, toys for the kids, and someone to hold their place if they had to make a "potty run" with one of the kids. The line must have been a quarter of a mile long. I sure hope they all got in.
Well this was my "long run" for the marathon. Next week the miles decrease a bit until the event in June. Wish me luck and keep those good thoughts and prayers coming my way. AND thank you all again for your great support - I couldn't have gone this far without it.
Love,
Kathy

WOW, what is up with the Hayson women and their marrathons. I get tired driving 10 miles. Hang and I wish you luck on your marrathon and Happy Mothers Day (tomorrow).
Love,
Chris & Hang
