Well, if anyone out there is reading this, I finished the 50 states in May, with the Flying Pig in Cincinnati, OH. My marathon count is now 79, on my way to 100. I'm also counting the states I have for the second time--not that I think I'll ever finish for a second time.

I've registered for a midnight marathon in Nevada in August. Long time between marathons. I'm going to actually have to train. Ugh! And in the heat. But then, it'll probably be warm in Nevada in August, even if the run does start at midnight.

Tutoring business is steady. Family is great--expecting a new greatgranddaughter any day now.

I got a story accepted for a Chicken Soup book--for runners. It'll come out on July 13. Woo-hoo! I've submitted two more stories to Chicken Soup. And I'm nearly reading to start querying for the memoir on running: The View From the Back of the Pack.

I've also been working on a vocabulary study guide for the SAT. I plan to work this summer on getting that published, too. The hardest part is getting the query letters good enough.
