    Would anyone else like to see this? Maybe something to complement the "Look What I Can Do" forum. There are several of us going through rough patches in our running of late and maybe it would be helpful to have someplace where we feel free to gripe and whine and find ways to work through these difficult times. k

      My running career has been nothing but rough patches with a few good half marathons in between! Wink

        But the fact that you keep going is inspirational in itself, really. I was tempted to not run, today, but I rolled out of bed and put on my running clothes with the full intent to get out there after I bring my son to school. After all, a wise person once said "Runners Run." Smile k
