So Thankful!

Another HUGE Thank you to the following people: Greg T., Alan Woodyard, my lovely Mom (Deborah), Adam Driscoll, and Simon Schober! Thank you all so much for donating to MyGiving page - your support means a lot to me!

Also - thank you to the other people who are providing me the tons of support in so many other ways - through advice and the notes of encouragement. Thank you to Greg for providing me so much information and advice on training, gear, and food! Simon -thank you for reminding me that you did this trek last year - your advice is going to continue to be needed :) Ashton, Brenna, Alan, Laura, Aryn, Heather, Aaron, Kristen- thank you for your e-mails, phone calls, and advice! Your support is awesome and I appreciate it!

Most of all thank you to the ever so amazing Trent - without your ability to ignore my...what I like to call strategic procrastination...AKA whining...and really push me to sign up for this trek - I probably never would have gotten the motivation and pure excitement that I now have to get going on this amazing challenge.

It makes me realize that I have amazing friends and family - and therefore a very strong support group. Liz and I have just begun our training and our push for fundraising - and I already feel like I can do anything thanks to everyone.

So heads up to anyone in the DC area on Tuesday, December 16th! We are having a fundraising HH at Tonic - 20th and G Street NW (Near Foggy Bottom). We are excited to kick off our first fundraising event! Starts at 5:30pm - Upstairs is booked for us! - donations are optional (we ask for $10 or more if you are in a giving mood - and if you are able to donate) - food will be provided - good people, good drinks, good fun!

Come on out!
