Benefit for the LLS

Our fund raising event at Felt was a huge success. Thank you to everyone who came out - we had an amazing turnout of well over 70 people. Despite not eating dinner and having a nasty headache for the majority of the night, I had a great time losing miserably in two games of pool to my coworker Tiffany, trying to learn how to play Cut Throat (I still don't get the point of the game, sorry Eric), being admittedly a bit embarrassed by the tuxedo t-shirts (didn't think you guys were serious about wearing them, but really, I should have known better), and making a valiant effort to find & return Adam's kidnapped blackberry. It was great to meet so many new people as well. It was difficult to get around to thank everyone for coming, but I believe that between the both of us, Amina and I were able to make sure everyone knew their presence was appreciated.

So, needless to say, running this morning was completely out of the question and all I've done is lounge around my house drinking H2O and Starbucks. This is all in preparation for tomorrow's long run, of course...it will be a stiff 10 miles in the heat. I've frozen my chocolate goo and am doing my best to stay hydrated in this horrible weather.

Many thanks to Vijay and Sarina for setting the space up for us, it wouldn't have been possible without their help.
