Marathon Maniac #3309
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!
"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."

5 miles on the eliptical, then I set the resistance as high as it would go for the last 5 minutes.
I have no idea what to expect at Boston, will try to stay comfortable and enjoy it.
Be safe. Be kind.

Far from cooking and sewing. I was in 4-H from as young as I can remember until I graduated high school. I showed Livestock at the county fair thru 4-H......Herferd Steers, Rabbits a couple of times, and Hampshire Hogs. Great program.
Plan had 3x1mi interval repeats, but I didn't feel up to it. Decided that wasn't necessary this close to the race, so ran at a bit better than MP without any problems. 8.1 miles, 1:03:36, 7:49/mi, AHR 159 (82% MHR)
