And now the moment you have all been waiting for…

Thank you to all of you who entered by 26.2 Marathon Woman Prize Pack, featuring a signed copy of Kathrine Switzer’s book 26.2 Marathon Stories. And before I announce the winner, please let me say I wish I could pick each and every one of you to win!

To everyone who entered my giveaway

I asked Michael to pick a number between 1 and 72 (comments are numbered from oldest first to the newest) and he picked # 34, after some serious contemplation. I asked him what took so long and he said he picked # 34 because the numbers 3 and 4 add up to # 7. He has a thing for 7. It’s his favorite number. I like to think it is because we got married on 07/07/07! 😉

Congratulations to …

MY RUN is being released on DVD on 09/20/2011. Don’t wait – reserve your copy today! After tragically losing his wife to breast cancer and struggling to raise three young children on his own, real life super hero and modern day Forrest Gump, Terry Hitchcock seized on an idea. He wanted to accomplish the impossible: run 75 consecutive marathons in 75 consecutive days to bring attention to the incredibly difficult lives of single-parent families. He ran in spite of freezing rain and unbearable heat, in spite of chest pains and bone fractures that wracked his 57-year-old body. He just kept running – each day, every dayCheck out my review of this inspirational film about running marathons and also the marathons of life HERE and look for me in the credits too!
