Interesting and Inspiring: Run, Cindy!

She's going to Boston!
Cindy finished the marathon under 3:40:00, the qualifying time for the 2008 Boston Marathon, so we're headed to Heartbreak Hill next April. I'll put up pics in just a bit, but in the meantime, if you are a runner looking for a tip on how to qualify, here's what to do:

TRAIN YOUR ASS OFF.

Cindy didn't miss a run for 18 weeks. She found a book called Advanced Marathoning that gave her an aggressive training plan. And she followed it. When she entered the track in Traverse City to finish the last .2 miles of the 26.2, she was smiling while passing people left and right. It was a kick-ass, inspiring moment. From a kick-ass, inspiring woman! Love you baby!

Helpful: Economic Development and Homeland Security Paper

So, I'm going to post my work on the interwebs, now that the final papers have been turned in, and my report card is final. Hopefully, the Google monkeys will help people find these papers, if anybody's interested.

#1 is my final paper from my Economic Development class (UPP 530 with Phil Ashton.) It's a report about the Homeland Security Market Development program that the State of Illinois created a few years ago. Enjoy.
