I am so excited to share this news!!!!

Please read below:

Hello Jessica,

We wanted to thank you so much for sharing your story in WBZ’s My Marathon campaign. There are so many inspirational and engaging stories and we want to share them with the world. On Thursday April 10, from 8am-8pm, we would like to invite you to come to our studio so we can record your Marathon story. We would like to use a collection of runner stories in our broadcast on Marathon Monday during the official broadcast of the race. Think of these as your own Olympic-style profile!                                                                                       

If you are interested in being a part of our production, please RSVP to me and let me know what time you would be able to come.

Ultimately we are looking for a quick summary of why you are running, who has inspired you and what this Boston Marathon means to you. If you are running with a team and want to come as a group that is great. If you have any pictures or video to share we can use that as well. It should only take 10-15 minutes of your time.

Thank you for participation and good luck as your big day is almost here. As the official Boston Marathon station, we’re proud to be able to share your story and see you cross the finish line. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Stay Boston Strong,

What:    My Marathon Stories

When: Thursday, April 10 from 8am – 8pm

Where: WBZ Studios, 1170 Soldiers Field Road, Boston, MA

Why:      Because we’re proud of you!

Today I ran 7 miles from Natick to Framingham and back like I did last week. My time was 5 minutes faster than last week. Today is going to be a heat wave – 54 degrees out! The weather was gorgeous out!

I will head to the gym on Friday and do TRX, the arc trainer, and stretches. On Saturday, I am going to be running from Hopkinton to Newton with a couple of girls from my team (16 miles). I posted a post on the DFMC internal message board asking if anyone was interested in running with me and they responded by email. I look forward to meeting these three women.

Last night’s meeting was wonderful. We talked about the logistics about getting to the starting line in Hopkinton starting at 5:15 in the morning, that we can leave our gear check bag at the Marriot Copley hotel and not have to deal with the rest of the runners who are leaving their bags at the Boston Common, and we got good advice from our coach about training and how we should train for the next three weeks.

I met a ton of new people at this meeting that I have never met before and I had a great time sharing running experiences with other teammates. We are only 20 days away from the big day!
