Marathon Maniac #957
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."
..nothing takes the place of persistence.....
"Champions are everywhere; all you need is to train them properly..." ~Arthur Lydiard
Live like you are dying not like you are afraid to die.

Running the 2016 Boston Marathon for Children's Hospital

I hammered down the trail, passing rocks and trees like they were standing still.
The only downside to the run was the idiot teenager who sped up to drive through a pile of slush (it snowed here last night) thoroughly soaking me in the process. If I wasn't such a lady, I might have had to use a gesture to tell him what I was thinking! Jeanne

"During a marathon, I run about two-thirds of the time. That's plenty." - Margaret Davis, 85 Ed Whitlock regarding his 2:54:48 marathon at age 73, "That was a good day. It was never a struggle."

(I download to TC and SportTracks, then file my run in my excel sheet, then file my run in the RA training log for good measure).
Be safe. Be kind.
Started with the nasty blister on the side of the foot (new shoes caused this) now an enormous pain on the ball of the foot.
PJH, the sleepover with the granddaughters sounds like fun. How old are they? DD used to love blanket forts. Brings back fond memories.
