Smile With Your Eyes




Welcome!

I'm Sarah and I'm training for the New York Marathon this November 1st, while raising funds for the Anxiety Disorders Association of America, in memory of my mother Robin Hunt.

She always used to tell me "Smile With Your Eyes," so that's what I named this blog. Over the years I've come to realize that phrase means a lot more than just how to take a good photo.

Please visit my fundraising page here.

You can read "Robin's Story" here, as written by my Dad.

And "Living With Anxiety, Advice for a Surviving Spouse".

Thanks for stopping by!

This is quite funny actually, this week I’ve been twitching a lot. Like waking myself up in the middle of the night in a full body jerk. I did a little google search this morning and I’m quite certain it is just built up tension in my muscles due to the anxiety I’m having about this run.
