    Great picture! Thanks for posting it. Again- congrats! I've looked at 50K training plans just to see if it might be possible (or that I'd be able to tackle one injury free) and there's no way. You're just too cool!

    It's a great picture . . . because you're obviously running -- not walking, shuffling, rolling, clawing, falling, being dragged, [fill in the blank with your own word] across the line.

    Yellow!

    How cool that I tune into TE for the first time in months and find your amazing story! I'm at work, and the hospital computer won't let me see your picture, but I'll look again from home.

    What a great story. I am so impressed that you've found this new love. Myself, I could barely *walk* when I was in Salt Lake. That training at altitude must have amazing benefits when you run at sea level. How cool.

    A hug to you, and scritches to the pups! Lise

    Lise! So nice to see you pop in!

    You know, every time I think of running photos, I think of that one of you that looks like you are flying...the one where both of your feet are off the ground. (I searched for it and couldn't find it.) I always hope MY pictures will look like that, but I don't think they every will.

    Hey! I popped back in to look at the picture of you running--for some reason the hospital computer never shows pictures in posts, so I have to look at home. Here's that one of me "flying"! I've gotten rather pudgy around the middle, having done virtually nada vis-a-vis athletics since the sprint tri last August. My goal for the new year is to run the 1/2 marathon in which this picture was taken. (It's in September. This can be done. ) I figure 13 miles is a reasonable distance for me. Merry Christmas to all!
