Suess - you are amazing!!! That report just made me laugh myself silly and then cry (again) lol. You have an amazing talent for writing. And you ran a marathon!!! Wow. I am truly in awe of you suess. You are terribly inspiring.

Congrats! And thanks for sharing such an awesome race report. :)

My training log

Why practice running slow? It comes naturally!

"There are two types of injuries that we older runners get: those that we can run with and those that we can't. And if you're over 30 and don't have one or the other, you aren't training hard enough." - Younger Legs blog

Congratulations Vicki.
