Summer came and went too fast, in what seems like one long sweaty day at the park. There are plenty of things we love about the season and we'll miss outdoor concerts and getting off early on Fridays, but there is no sense in wallowing in it or regretting all the things you planned but never got around to.

The NYC Marathon is only weeks away, and, if you are looking for a runner to support, I have the girl for you. My friend Heather Pitsch will be running as part of "Team McGraw" for a very special cause that has been close to her heart, as well as mine. She will be running in honor of Nathan Raun, an amazing boy from our hometown who died of brain cancer.
You can go HERE to learn all about Heather and make a donation towards her run for Nate. Also, you can join us Monday, September 22nd for a celebration in his honor. Details below. Good luck to Heather and all of the NYC Marathoners!
