One week! Runners for Grace, need to knows!


Runners for Grace!

So are you excited? We are exactly a week away for our marathons! I have to first apologize for the lack of communication and motivation on here. We are a week away and I haven't really been good about updating the blog, and fundraising. 

I know from the beginning, It was one of my desires is to really get out there and fund raise, because it is such an important cause. I have seen first hand the funds raised being used for kids that are battling this awful monster! This foundation is legit!  

But we still have one week to really push! I have to tell you how blown away I am to see us reach our team goal of walkers and runners! Seriously God blows me away! Last year it was our desire that we have someone represent us in every event, and guess what we do! We have someone doing the bike tour Saturday, people in the 5k, 10k , half marathon and the kids run! 

I am not going to hang my head though, because we know it isn't how we start the race it is how we finish it, right? So start to hit up your friends, co workers, family or near by businesses. I am sure you have bought cookies, wrapping paper or cheesecake in the past right? Now's your turn! 

Few important things:

1. Pray.. Be sure to be in prayer this week! Specifically for:
           Health, Eating, Injuries, the Team, all the runners, and our cancer warriors! 
2. As you eat healthy, drink lots of water and make sure to stretch alot throughout the week. 
3. Don't worry about getting out to Irvine to pick up your bibs, shirts etc. I will pick up everything for the team. 
4. I will have everything for you all Sunday morning. More details on that to come! We will have a booth, and we will have someone there at all times so you have a place to leave your stuff that day. I would pack minimal though. 
5. If you can please do me one favor, if you can email me at faithfoodfitness@gmail.com with your email address and phone number I would appreciate it. I will be emailing you all on Saturday with the meeting times and location. 
6. I will be drafting a fundraiser letter, if you are interested in it, please let me know I can send it to you, this would be good to send out asking for people to sponsor you.
7. Team Shirts- so with registration, you all will get a shirt. In addition to that shirt, We got sponsored by Mike Garcia company for team shirts. This will have our team name and scripture on it so we can be in unity that day. This shirt will also be given to you on Sunday. We might have a few extra for those who signed up late or that day. 
8. look out for more communications from me coming this week! 

I am really excited and pumped up. I have been praying for you all and thank each and everyone of you that have taken a step of faith to come along side our team. In your prayers please remember my knee! I would appreciate it! 

If you have any questions, You can contact either myself, Patricia or Emma! 

Love you guys!
