I am starting to get a little nervous. My Saturday walk/jog was a little tough for me this last week. I did 12 miles and managed to still keep my 15 minute pace per mile but I was completely worn out at the end. I guess missing the almost two weeks of training was more damaging than I thought. Well, I did do my 4 miles on Monday and I will be doing 4 miles today and on Friday as Well. I might do my Friday walk on Thursday because we are due for some thunderstorms again on Friday.
I still need to raise some money so if you are reading this, thank you for your donation but please pass my website onto all of your friends and family!! Remember all the funds go towards cancer research to find a cure. www.active.com/donate/tntntx/charlenecrockett
Something special happened a couple days ago. I received an email back from Dr. Yu in San Diego. He holds a special place in my life and my parents life. He saved my leg back in 1985! Thanks to him I have been able to lead a life that included backbacking, sports, and now walking a marathon! And although I was not counting on him donating to the cause he did ask for the address of where to send a check. Thank you for your support Dr. Yu!
So, if you cannot make an online donation. Send a check or moneyorder made out to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to my work address. I have to receive it by May 18th, 2007 so that I can receive credit towards my account.

Please send it soon.
This weekend I believe I have to do 16 or 18 miles on Saturday. This is going to be a test for sure. Then the following weekend is my longest training day of 20 miles. My coach suggested I try to do 22 because I have never participated in a marathon before. Wish me luck. I will write more later.
