Well-I made it. I'm running the Spinx Runfest 26.2 mile marathon this Sunday in downtown Greenville. I've been training hard and with the support of many (thank you Melissa, Kathy, Dawn) I am ready for this.  I ran 21 miles last Sunday in 4 hours, I ran this Sunday in 15 miles in 150 minutes. I am so ready and pumped. Wish me luck, I might need it -especially if it rains Chris

The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.....John Bingham aka The Penguin

I am very proud of you! I can't believe that that little 5K would turn into this.   And now that I have said that, can you please let me know the name of your crack dealer?  I gotta get me some of that...

I am so happy for you! I am hoping within the next year I will be able to start running also. With inspirations like you, Kathy, Melissa and Dawn  I know I can make that goal! Are you familiar with iRun?

 

Hugs,
Karen
