We're not meant to be.....

.....at least not this year. Yesterday was the lottery drawing for the New York City Marathon 2010. My application status: "Not Accepted".

but that's ok.....I knew this year was a long-shot.
FYI, just to recap, I have several options for entering the NYC marathon.
1. qualify - ummm, nope! not fast enough!!!
2. run for charity - while this is a fantastic idea, the charities are pre-selected, and if I was going to run for charity, I would want to choose my own.
3. guaranteed entry via travel partner - this is an option for me, but an expensive one for Steve and I to travel together, so.....I would rather wait for.......
4. marathon LOTTERY. I am guaranteed entry in 4 years. Patience, patience, patience.

In the meantime, I have just been browsing the Spring Running Room magazine online, and I came across something great.


Register at your local Running Room, bring your change, and help children living in poverty. I great initiative! I just signed up, what are you waiting for????
