On my 4 miles this morning I was doing a 3 minute run 1 minute walk. On one of my walk breaks a women run up from behind and says "I was trying to catch you come on!!" Well you know how I like challenges I keep running to catch up to her. I see she has a Triathon tee shirt on.. while running I ask her how many has she as done? She done many Triathlons including a few Ironmans! Have you heard of the Ironmans?? But she says she had to stop doing Ironmans because of doctors orders!!

She has Multiple Sclerosis!!

Multiple sclerosis???!!!???   Ok, that's it for me.  No more whining about my marathon training schedule! No more griping about their routing our runs uphill.  No more lying in bed wishing I could continue to lie in bed instead of getting up to go run.  I bow to that lady.  I am not worthy!  Marcia

I know what you mean!! I could feel myself slacking off my workouts!! I think that was what I needed to get me back in gear!! While we were running she tell me that everyone needs a little push!!

I know I need one!!

My workouts are okay.  By next week, I will be ready to do 6.5 miles.   You ought to see me now, I am sitting here with my mouth totally dropped open.   What did you say?  You took K's place in San Diego, now it's my turn to take her place in Anahiem.  You got jokes. 
Without struggle, there is no progress.

Whatever!  Let me recover from my plastic surgery first and get this wound to heal then you can push me.  Then YOU better be ready.....I'm sure you wouldn't want to get beat by someone who just had a lower body lift and didn't run for 4 months!  LOL
