We silly Americans (at least those who don't golf or bowl) are curious about how such a race works. Slower folks get a head start? Fast folks have to run with a sack of flour or a child on their shoulders?

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 year I suffered the humiliation of being overtaken by a pink fairy with a dog on a lead, it wouldn't have been so bad but it was a small dog. I must admit this year I hesitated when overtaking the two St Trinian school girls as they were a sight for sore eyes from behind.

I wouldn't feel so bad about being passed by a pink Faerie...it could have been PBJ... I have been beaten by a clam...
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."

Yesterday's 4 miler apparently did the job of getting my legs back feeling good again. There is something to be said for those magical healing miles, though they certainly don't feel magical while you are struggling through them.

I hammered down the trail, passing rocks and trees like they were standing still.
