remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.

Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson

Congrats on a great race! And the scenery 'sounds' beautiful. Any pictures? (And not cold at all, was it?) bas
My full went well. I was shooting for 3:45. I made 3:48. My calves cramped pretty bad miles 23-the end. Its an excuse. The bottom line is that I ran about as good as I could. I needed a few more miles during training. Very happy with my time, the race, and the day overall. See you at next years full!!
