Julie, if you didn't get all the photos you might have wanted I have some really great shots from around the island. If
you want any scenery shots to enlarge I would be happy to send you the jpegs. I have dozens of different ones.
Jeeze, Beth, way to make my pictures look blah, now. If you take my picture with your camera, can you make me look pretty and glowing?
I would LOVE to have some of those beautiful pictures as a souvenir of the island! I'll send you my e-mail, later today. Thanks so much!!!

I can deal with being slow. I crave lily's abs though.
exactly my thoughts

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

Now you all stop with this abs silliness. I don't have abs, I have ribs. Old lady's ribs. OTH, Scott has great abs and he works hard for them!

Thanks... it's coming up on three years since I actually started learning it .
In the words of my late-coach : Just hang in there, relax... and at the end of a race anyone you see.....just pass them

Lily, I didn't have time to read this yet, but I looked over the pictures, and WOW, how beautiful! I couldn't even imagine up a prettier location for a race and a get-away. And of course, the pics of you are always gorgeous. Congratulations for another marathon, and for showing us all what determination can accomplish. And I promise, I will read it soon!

Dayum, of course they had to drug-test you, you're that fast there!! I love your RR's, they're always so much detail and wonderful pictures, both of the race and of the venue/city itself. And besides, seeing HL in a bikini also makes this a 10 out of 10!

Nicely done, Lily. Nicely done...
I'm happy, hope you're happy too...
LTH, a cheque from the hands of Bart Yasso himself? Wow! Congratulations! You're good...
Mandy, did I hear you say never? As in "NEVER"? That's a long time... But for you, I'll try. :-) Thanks, sweetie!
Blue, thank you! I hope you had a great run last Sunday.:-)
Kristin, thank you so much for your kindness!
Pink, thank you, friend!
wcrunner, knowing that you like the shorter races, I tried detailing them as much as I could, just for you. :-) I'm sorry that I didn't give the miler the respect that it deserves. But next time I hope to do better. Thanks!
meaghan, thank you!
catty, thanks a lot! But I'm no forum pro. We all know that Damaris is the forum pro. :-)
Mary, thank you! I want to run Disney with you someday. Then we can send LTH all of our cute pictures and say "Nah nah!". lol...
Beth, thank you for inspiring me to do this. It was so worth it! I'm impatiently waiting for your report from Ireland now. And then your hotel recommendation. :-)
Luke, thanks, man!
Heidi, thank you! It means a lot to me to know that I can share my experiences with great runners like you. You inspire me everyday. :-)
Supersono99, thank you so much!
