Marathon Observations

Dedicated, crazy, determined -- all these adjectives could apply to the folks who paid $25 to run outside on Valentine's Day.

Over 300 people ran either the entire marathon (26.something) the half-marathon (13.2?) or the 5K which is slightly over 3 miles. On purpose, just for fun.

Kudos to them for raising a lot of $$ to benefit breast cancer research.

No, I didn't run... I did smile a lot, clap when they left to start the race and cheered when they came back in. There was a polite 10 year old boy that ran the half-marathon and claimed he wasn't coerced into running.

Seeing this kind of dedication has inspired me to set a goal to WALK the 5K at the MedCity Marathon on May 30th. Who wants to join me?

Guppy Girl style training starts next week!
