Pure Awesome Pam!

Congrats on your 100!

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

Incredible. Well done!

No. There’s some things it’s better to do all by yourself.” Augustus Hill, Oz

Nope, just can't find the right words. Congrats seems too small and I'm speechless.

I write. I read. I run. One time, I ran a lot on my 50th birthday.

Aren't 100 milers bad for your knees?

Wow Pam! What an experience you had -- simply amazing. I love all the details you have included like what you ate and the people you meet. Glad your cold didn't stop you from becoming the first woman to finish . . . ever! Congrats!

Hmmph, just cruising through the forum and saw this. Inspiring. And I see Willamona from the old LHR crowd too. On the other hand, these are the types of posts that make a person who vowed never to run another 50 start daydreaming about the big 100. My son just yelled at me for even mentioning it. Good job and good report.
