    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

                      I'm doing the Maine Marathon in....you guessed it....Maine! The race is only around 20 miles from where we lived so it seemed like a good first one. I've got a 17 miler tomorrow, a 20 miler next week, then a couple weeks of taper before the race. Wish me luck! Tongue
