The Red Party!

Hey all!

So it's been a while, but I've got some amazing updates:

• For those of you at HBS, check out the article about my fundraising and training in Monday's Harbus! The HBS newspaper (especially Kay Fukunaga) has been so supportive and will be doing a regular feature on my preparations for the Boston Marathon.
• For those of you who live in Boston, don't miss the Red Party! On Thursday, February 11, Redline Cambridge will be hosting this fabulous event to raise funds for cancer research.  The night will feature a DJ, free appetizers, a prize drawing, and lots of good-looking, generous people dressed up in their finest red attire!  Click here to find out more and to buy tickets: http://sellyourevents.com/TheRedParty.aspx Tickets are going to sell FAST, so don't wait!
• On that note, I am seriously humbled by the incredible, generous businesses we have in Harvard Square.  After a few hours of walking around today (SO cold, but so worth it!), I'm proud to announce the following new items for the Red Party prize drawings:
• A $50 gift certificate to Redline Cambridge
• A taco bar for 20 PEOPLE! from Qdoba Mexican Grill
• 4 pounds of gourmet coffee beans from Starbucks
• A $30 gift certificate to John Harvard'
• An ultra-nice Champion Harvard Business School sweatshirt from J. August
• Lots of other great prizes coming soon!

Aside from that, training has been so amazing these past few weeks.  The chance to train at altitude in Denver while I was home really stepped up my game, and my runs back here at HBS have felt great!  I haven't missed a workout yet since getting here, and I've never felt more postive and energetic (or hey, chock full of endorphines!).  If this week was any proof, it's going to be a crazy semester of training, studying, fundraising, singing with the She-E-O's, job hunting, working, and having a great time with my HBS friends while I'm still lucky enough to have them all in one place. 

In summary: bring it on. ;)

See you all at the Red Party!
