The program I’m applying to is a master’s in nonprofit management. Yes, I want to make no money for the rest of my life…but I’ll be saving the world! Or something like that

Congrats on signing up for a half marathon! That’s fantastic. It sounds like you’ve got some great supporters doing it with you too, which always helps.

Obviously Columbus isn’t even close to as cool as San Diego, but we have been known to be the home of many grea food companies (hence the reason why we are also one of the fatest cities!). Wendy’s started here, and Krema nut butter (I think). We also have a great chocolate company called Anthony Thomas. Have you heard of it? I don’t know if it started here or not, but their chocolates are GOOOOOD!

Good luck on the half! I’d like to run my first 5K this year….is there anywhere online that I can see all the San Diego races for the year?
Also…what channel will you be on Monday? I want to check it out!

Good luck on the half! Personally, I like Hal Higdon’s training plans.

The only local thing that I can think of is Sweetwater beer.

Yeah, the plan I made up only has us running 3x a week. I need cross training or I’ll go crazy! Plus I have to walk Nina some days too. My #1 goal is to not get injured…that would suck

Yayyy for the half marathon!! I’m thinking about doing one around the same time as opposed to May. I just don’t know where I’ll be living then yet – so I can’t sign up yet! My only recommendation is not to run more than 4 times a week – ideally running every other day. It’s okay to run everyday if you’re training for a marathon, but I think that can get you injured in a half marathon plan.

Good luck on your TV appearance!! Live TV scares the crap out of me. You’ve probably already done this – but make a list of questions you’re expecting to be asked and how you plan to answer them. Additionally, list the points you want to get across and stick to those. It will hopefully keep you from going “uhhh” and you’ll sound like you know more than you really do

Thanks for the bee-day shout out!!!!
