One month to the Seattle Marathon. I wanted to be farther along in my training, but I did make it through a 7.6 mile walk this week, which is a little more than half the distance of a Half Marathon. I made it without injury. A few more walks in the next four weeks ought to do it. How about you? Are you ready? You can register for the Seattle Marathon all the way up to the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Of course, the fee goes up again after the next cutoff November 17.
Today, I am adding to the calendar:
(1) a brand new run Color Me A Miracle to benefit Children’s Uncompensated Care Fund. It is a color run, where participants are splattered with paint.
(2) the 15th annual Hopelink Turkey Trot. This organization provides help to families in crisis.
(3) the 2nd annual CATurkey Trot. This organization benefits animal rescue groups.
Calendar Additions:
Color Me A Miracle (5K, Seattle University near downtown Seattle, Sunday November 8).
Hopelink Turkey Trot (5K, Marina Park in Kirkland, Sunday November 22).
CATurkey Trot (5K, Fall City — 5 miles north of Snoqualmie, Thursday November 26).
