One week until the Los Angeles Marathon!

A week from tomorrow (on March 21, 2010) I will be FINALLY running the 25th Los Angeles Marathon - joining 25,000 other runners on the path from Dodger Stadium to the Santa Monica Pier -

I must send a big THANK YOU to all those who have donated!  With your help, I have been able to raise (to date) $3718.92!!  I am just over $1,300.00 short of the goal of $5,000.00 - it'd be AMAZING to reach that goal, but I am proud of getting this far, and currently being one of the TOP TEN FUNDRAISERS in the program!!

Now comes the fun part - running 26.2 miles! -

For those of you who might want to keep track of my time and pace during the marathon, you can go HERE - and sign up... Search for me (Kyle Kunnecke) as the runner you'll track during the event.  Once signed up, as I progress through the race, they will send you updates as to my time!  Cool, huh!! 

Let me know if you are tracking me - I am curious how many people actually want to follow my time! - You can also watch the marathon on KTLA Channel 5 - from 7AM - 10AM (I won't have finished by this time!) haaha

You can choose to receive updates via pager, email or text message.  This is the coolest thing and I'm SUPER excited to be able to share my time with you.  Keep in mind as you discover my pace, I'm not a "real" runner... I'll be slow, but two things I will promise:

1. I WILL finish the marathon!
2. I will NOT be the last person to cross the finish line!

If you are still able to make a donation and want to help me get to the $5,000 goal, please make one more trip to the donation site - give what you can, and share the link with your friends -

I'll be thinking of all of you while approaching the finishin line at the end of this long journey - it really is true: you can do anything you want if you set your mind to it!
