So this was my second year doing the Undy 5000 here in Denver, Colorado. Last year I had a few supporters but this year I had none. I am not sure as to why know one wants to support such a good cause. And I am even more baffled as to why I didn't get any support from my family. This lady who's honor I have tried to carry on was only in my life for close to a year. Those who knew her and had been around her forever were know where to be found. I didn't even get any donations. When I started out on my run (which I almost didn't do), I felt very much alone as I looked at all the other teams and people who had a support system. As I started to run I was overcome by a feeling of being watched over. At that point I knew I wasn't alone, but I in fact had my grandmother there with me. That was all I truly needed besides god. The fact that no one was there and no one believes in the cause is still very heartbreaking. It will also keep me from asking anyone in the future. But it will not keep me from doing my run in honor of "My Old Lady" every year........................God willing
