Latest donation total

Now that the run is over I suppose that donations will begin to taper off.  The latest total is $6,091.  WAY more than I had expected.  Thank-You everyone.  The Posoltega lunch program is now alive for another year.   LEE

100 miles conquered

I finished the 100 miles run today.....How do my feet feel?  Tired! (pun intended)  My only hope is that I can keep motivated to continue running just for my health. Donations are over $6,000 and  I know of several additional donations that are on the way.   I'll give the final total in about a week.
I think I'll have an extra beer tonight.

Home stretch

This is the home stretch.  Only 2.95 miles to run and my huaraches will have 100 miles under them.
My son, Alex, will run those last miles with me.

radio interview

  I just finished doing a radio interview about the run,  with a Stephanie Foreman from WIUX,  99.1 FM, the IU station.  Stephanie is a good friend of my son Alex.
You can hear it on Sunday evening during their news hour....between 7 and 8 PM.  She said it would probably not be at the first part of the show (What?  Do you mean I didn't get the whole hour?).  Listen in if you find time.
Donations will soon top $6,000.  Thanks, everyone.

Was it a bobcat? Mountain lion?

     I was trying to cross Tapp Road today.  Lots of traffic.  I had to wait a long time.  As I looked ahead up the trail, I saw an animal that, from the distance of about 150 yards, looked like either a mountain lion or a bobcat.  It had a small head and that is why I don't think it was a dog... I hadn't been drinking.  ( I'll do that at 4PM)  When I got to the place where I saw it cross, I looked deep in to the field and clearings and didn't see it again....Who knows?
     I ran 5.52 miles today.  there are only 10.95 to go.  I plan on running up to the 100th mile with my son, Alex, who is coming to visit on Wednesday.
     Also, one of his friends from IU is going to interview me tomorrow for a radio program.  All publicity helps.  

$5,736...with 16.47 miles to go

Then what will motivate me to run????

Lee's run in final miles

There are now just 21.81 miles to go.  I've had a cold and a sore ankle and those two set me back for a week.  Now I am back to running.  Donations total $5,636.   Amazing.  The lunch program is now sound for the next year and the Committee  now has  time to raise funds for the following year.  The pressure is off.  We don't want to get behind again.
