Perch's Profile "I don't know if running adds years to your life, but it definitely adds life to your years." - Jim Fixx "The secret is to make in your mind possible what was not possible before. The secret is to make easy what was difficult, instead to make difficult what really is easy." - Coach Renato Canova

Running has given me the courage to start, the determination to keep trying, and the childlike spirit to have fun along the way - Run often and run long, but never outrun your Joy of running!
One day at a time

"Some are the strong, silent type. You can't put your finger on exactly what it is they bring to the table until you run without them and then you realize that their steadiness fills a hole that leaks energy in their absence." - Kristin Armstrong

Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
, and DS is supposed to fly out early tomorrow morning to Virginia. He and some other boys from all over Maine are headed to the national Junior Olympic XC meet (5k race). It's been a cool experience for him - he usually runs against these kids, but now he gets to train WITH them. They came in first in the Maine meet and NYC recional meet (in that race, DS was 4th and his team took the top 6 out of 64 places). From looking at results from the other regional meets, it may be tough for them to win at nationals, but they could easily be in the top 3. Last year, the team (without DS) came in 2nd.!
