Three Things Thursday

1)  I have been amazed by the outpouring of support for my Virtual Half Goofy Challenge fundraiser!  Runners from across the country have been signing up since I announced it!  Even more amazing has been the help in promoting it.  One blogger even wrote an entire post about it!  Incredible support!  To everyone who has mentioned it on their blogs or helped to retweet it on twitter - I am incredibly humbled and grateful!  Thank you.

And if you are interested in signing up - registration is still open until December 15!  Plenty of time and guaranteed not to sell out.  Plus - when you finish it...you get one of these:

2) Just this past weekend,  JS and I had been discussing how we weren't going to do the Santa Shuffle 5k this year...and then Nicole at Haute Runner had to go and mention how they have medals this year...and y'all know how that will suck me into a race registration page....

So I am now registered.   and, come December 1st - I'll be bringing one of these babies home:

And I convinced hubby to sign up too so we can have a date day!

3) And I have a confession to make.  I started my holiday shopping today.  Yes - I realize it is September.  Yes - I realize the only snow in the forecast is the one my daughters talk about daily as they wish for all the leaves to fall so the snow can come.  But I had a chance to score some awesome deals and I took total advantage :) 

Besides, with double runs in the forecast during a time I would usually do my holiday shopping in November and December - it is probably a good thing if I get done earlier this year!
