On Monday morning, I arrived at work to find notice of two donations in my inbox, one from a friend and former co-worker (thanks, S!) and one from a family member who had the privilege of knowing my grandfather far longer than I (thanks, J! and, thanks S!).
This morning, after spending far too long on a crowded streetcar and arriving at work about thirty minutes late, I discovered that I'd received a donation from United Way volunteer extraordinaire J--thanks so much for your generous donation!
Later on this morning, after a lengthy meeting, I returned to my desk to find notice of yet another donation, this time from my Montreal counterpart P--thanks so much!
Fundraising is going very well this week! It's been a bit of a relief, really, because I somehow have to raise $1045 in the next two and a half weeks.
As for my training, I ran 8 miles on Sunday evening in 90 minutes or so. Despite my sub-par level of cardiovascular fitness and resultant inability to breathe at acceptable volume levels, I had a reasonably good time and am currently suffering no ill effects (contrast this with my first long(ish) run, which put me out of commission for a week or so).
