Congratulations and special thanks to Richard Gremillion, aka Dad, for claiming the last, most rewarding, amazing mile - mile #140!! Can't wait to see what name he thinks up for it!
Thank you and congratulations to my long time friend Jennifer Bailey for claiming 1/4 of mile 91! Jennifer and I grew up together in Alexandria, LA. Our friendship allowed her to get to know my mom really well. Our friendship also allowed her to get to know me really well, which is why she chose mile #91. You see, 1991 was a prominent year in our friendship AND coincidentally (or perhaps not) the same year one of my favorite albums ever was released - Guns N' Roses Use Your Illusion I and II!! Apparently, a few of my oldest friendships are significantly marked by my love and devotion to good old GNR!!! We're still deciding on a name, but for now we've settled on the "Use Your Illusion Mile". Any volunteers to blast the album on race day?? I'd love to hear a little 'You Could Be Mine', 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door', or 'Don't Cry' to keep me moving.
Thanks for my early birds for getting this thing started! Be sure and check in and watch for your name added to my list at the top right of the blog. Donate today, claim your mile today, change ovarian cancer forever - TODAY!!!
